    Add in Poland, add in Germany, and you are already at 3/5. France and UK, and you beat US. Total, Europe has 750mln people, with similar area.

      That’s only if you include Russia (145 million) and Turkey (85 million). You only include those countries in “Europe” when you want to. That’s like the US including CA and MX in its population just because they’re nearby.

        Okay, countries just within the European Union have a population of 450mln. Also, we were talking about demographics - Europe vs United States. Everyone includes those countries.
