Europe is now a country

[Wilson Gray]

Well, you gotta admit that the only reason that Europe has ever been
considered to be a continent is that the concept of "continent" is one
that Europeans originated. Someone, also a European, to his credit,
once suggested that Europe ought to be considered to be merely a
peninsula or other appendage attached to the Asian land mass. ;-)
