Europe is the western part of the continent of Eurasia, is bordered by water on three sides. On the west is the Atlantic Ocean. To the north is the Arctic Ocean. The Mediterranean Sea separates Southeastern Europe from Africa. On the eastern border of Europe are the Ural River and Ural Mountains.
There are at least 43 countries in Europe. Most of these countries are members of the European Union. Europe covers 2% of the Earth's surface (6.8% of its land area).
The name "Europa" was used to describe Greece. Then, as the rest of modern-day Europe started to have cities and empires, the entire area West of the Ural Mountains came to be called "Europa".
