Not to be difficult, but isn't Turkey technically Europe? If not, what is it - Africa or Asia?

And a hearty bwahahaha! to Scrappy for beating me to that particular Python item.

WHO ONE THE CUP FINALS IN 1959?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

You get to give, er, I think it's 1 point, 2 points, 4 points, 6 points, 8 points, 10 points and 12 points. I think. Or something like that. Basically you've got a bunch of points that you can deal out to deserving countries in various sizes of chunks, depending on how good they were.

I believe that half of Turkey is in Europe, and half is in the Middle East. But I failed Geography, so I may be talking out of my arse here.

Okay, so it's not some 11-is-a-bad-number thing then.

Most of Turkey is in Asia, geographically (as is all of the Middle East up until Egypt, so go Team Fay's arse!), though the bits across the Bosphorus are in Europe. Turkey wants very much to be in Europe (the EU) but that's another matter.

Huh. I can't remember from RISK or HISTORY OF THE WORLD but I always assumed that since Turkey was in DIPLOMACY it was European. Granted so's Russia, and that starddles both continents. Actually, what is Russia considered: European, Asian or just both?
