[quote="Fluffy_Bunny":4af70]Russia & Europe.

I heard that Russia was part of the EU, but do they have the Euro? No. Are they going to have the Euro? Probably not.
The debate on whether Russia is part of Europe is still being argued to this day, the people of Western Russia are mainly slavic and european descent, but the Siberian people are more asian. The Golden Horde invaded Russia during the middle ages so there is a lot of Asian blood there. IMHO Russia is not part of Europe, Russia is Russia. It's about three times bigger than Europe. If it was part of Europe then Europe would stretch from the Atlantic to the Pacific. oOo:[/quote:4af70]
Flawed theory, mate.

A continent is not defined by the currency that its members use. Take North America, for a start.
