Why doesn’t the larger continent simply eat the smaller ones?
Give it a few hundred million years.
Was thinking just this, hahahaha!
Are they stupid?
The “other ones” are not continents!
I’m tired of seeing all the diverse countries of Africa being lumped together as if they were homogenous.
So much land to
exploitexplore. Explore.You explore land, you expand your empire, and then it all kind of gets fuzzy and controversial after that
So much land to scramble for.
FTFY
Shockingly as well, if you take all of the 50+ countries in Africa and arrange them carefully, they fit pretty much perfectly inside Africa.
Funny how comparing countries to continents works, amiright?
All sorts of fun to be had overlying various things. I guess Africa is about 2 Russias in size.
I love when I’m talking to an American and they try and tell me that I " just don’t understand how big Texas is". So then I tell them that if Texas were in Australia, it would only be the fifth largest state, sixth if you include NT (which you should, their lack of statehood while having the largest percentage population of Indigenous Australians is telling).
Wow, great map. Thanks, really shows some perspective.
Also, you should qualify that with “some” Americans. Some Americans have no concept of the US, like where the bulk of the population lives (65% live between Georgia and Boston), how empty the mid-west/west is, etc.
I’m not sure where you think I said all Americans think, or say, this. But it is a phrase that only an American would say. You aren’t going to hear many Australians say it my friend.
The UK: “This is not what we voted for!”
