Of course, everyone remembers that Asia is the largest part of the world on the planet. TravelAsk wants to tell you about this many-sided and amazing world in more detail.
The biggest
The area of Asia, together with the islands, exceeds 44 million square kilometers. Together with Europe, they form a single continent - Eurasia. There are more than 50 states on the territory of Asia, and they are all so different: India, China, Russia,. Each of them has its own customs and practices.
The term "Asia" itself comes from the ancient Greek language. Greek mythology, like any other, personified natural phenomena and the surrounding world. The name Asiya was borne by one of the oceanids, the wife of Prometheus. Hence the name of the mainland. By the time of Herodotus, this name was firmly entrenched behind the mainland, and the Scythians who lived beyond the Caspian Sea were called Asians.
So attractive and different.
Asia itself is very diverse and contrasting: there are deserts and forests, steppes and mountains, jungles and tundra. It is in Asia that the highest mountain on the planet - Everest and the lowest place on land - the Dead Sea are located. The climate here is different: warm and humid in the south, cold in Siberia.
There is also a striking difference in culture, religion and the level of the economy.
So, for example, there are civilizations here, the history of which goes back thousands of years: Chinese, Japanese, Indian. It was here, on the banks of the Tigris and Euphrates, that they originated. Today in Asia there are countries with highly developed technologies (for example, Japan), and there are those where the inhabitants still lead a nomadic lifestyle (for example, the inhabitants of the Andaman Islands). Here are the most luxurious and rich cities, as well as the most terrible and poor slums.
And even women in Asia for every taste))) So, in Muslim countries they don’t even show their faces, and in Thailand the number of prostitutes per Thai is more than in any other state.
Fact #1. It is in Asia that the largest reserves of gold, oil and other minerals are located.
Fact #2. 60% of the world's population lives in Asia.
.jpg)
Fact #3. The area of Asia is larger than the area of the Moon.
Fact #4. Asia is the birthplace of not only the most ancient civilizations, but also the largest structure made by human hands - the Great Wall of China.
.jpg)
Fact #5. The Middle East is considered the birthplace of Islam, but it is in Asia that most Muslims live.
Fact #6. One of the most densely populated countries in the world is located in this part of the world. This is Bangladesh. Here 85% Muslims.
Fact #7. The ten highest mountains are located in Asia.
Fact #8. There is a forecast that by 2025, 7 of the 10 largest cities in the world will be located in this part of the world.
Fact #9. Real goddess girls live in Nepal. They are called Kumari.
Fact #10. Asia is dominated by three religions: Hinduism, Islam and Buddhism.
Fact #11. In some Asian languages, green and blue do not differ lexically. So, in Japan, until the twentieth century, one word was used to designate them - “aoi”.
Fact #12. The cow is considered a sacred animal in most Asian countries.
Fact #13. Many countries have their own unusual laws and regulations. For example, in Japan it is officially forbidden to be fat. The waist of a man should not exceed 85 centimeters, and women - 90 centimeters. This is prescribed by law. This is because thin people are healthier. Therefore, if a Japanese suddenly gets fat, he needs to follow a diet, and a company that employs a lot of overweight people must pay a fine.
Fact #14. Asia is the fastest growing continent.
