- (Géographie) Afro-Eurasie.
The Triple Continent—Afro-Eurasia—is the most extensive single land mass in the world. Eurasia is one continuous body—from Spain on the Atlantic, through the Balkans into Russia, on to Siberia and China, and as far as Vladivostok and Hong Kong on the Pacific. On the south, Eurasia is united to Africa at the Isthmus of Suez and separated from it by a narrow strait at Gibraltar.
