Of the World's seven continents, Europe is the second smallest by surface area but the third most populous continent and was the birthplace of Western culture. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the West, the Mediteranean Sea to the South and Asia to the East. The name 'Europe' is believed to have originated from the Phoenician Princess "Europa" of Greek Mythology.
Europe is a diverse continent with a rich history and many fascinating cultures.It is home to the smallest country in the World, the Vatican and also (part of) the largest country in the world, Russia. Many borders of Europe are unclear and are determined politically rather than geographically.
Driving in Europe will not be a problem if you are well prepared. There are certain factors that are common to all European countries such as displaying a GB badge and carrying appropriate documents but it is worth researching individual countries in advance so that you can spend less time worrying and more time enjoying your trip.
