Relatively small continent compared to the other continents, Europe boasts a hugely varied topography and climate, and is home to a selection of disparate languages, cultures and beliefs.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Across the north are the Scandinavian countries<\/a> <\/strong>(Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland).\u00a0 Greenland, a seldom \u2013 visited destination to the west of Iceland,\u00a0 is considered part of North America. On the Baltic Sea, just beneath the Scandinavian Peninsula, are the Baltic nations<\/a><\/strong> of ( Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania).\u00a0 In the northwest are the British \u2013 Isles,\u00a0 which consist of Great Britain and Ireland (which is not really British at all).\u00a0 In Western Europe are France and Benelux countries (Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg), as well as the Iberian Peninsula, which features Portugal and Spain. Spain is also sometimes included as part of the Mediterranean Countries, which curve along the northern shore of this legendary sea. Among them are Italy, Greece, Malta and Turkey ( which\u00a0 spills over from Asia).\u00a0\u00a0 (The Eastern European countries), which have swung their doors wide open to tourism are (Poland, the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic (also known as Slovakia), Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, and Albania. The former nation of Yugoslavia is also among these,\u00a0\u00a0 but it has broken down into a series of smaller countries (Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, and what remains of the original Yugoslavia (usually called Serbia). In the easternmost portion of Europe is Russia and its co \u2013 nations in the commonwealth of independent states (most of the former Soviet Union), which stretches well into Asia. And in the middle of Europe are nations of Alpine Europe (Germany, Switzerland, and Austria).<\/p>\n
