We enter Europe -- and get ready to spend the next 3 months (or so) looking at countries from the European Continent. We enter Europe through Spain because the last African continent we were just in was Morocco -- and only 8 miles separate Morocco from Spain or Africa from Europe at the Strait of Gibraltar. Spain is bordered by 4 countries. Can you name the 4 countries that border Spain?

If Spain is not an empire now, when did it cease being an empire?

Africa is huge. It's bigger than you think. It's big, it's young, and it's pretty evenly split between the world's two biggest religions. Nigeria is the most populous country, Mount Kilimanjaro the highest point, and Mansa Musa was loaded.

Morocco looks absolutely magical. At the intersection of North Africa, Europe, and the Arab World, this is a place where cultures collide. Also, a mind-blowing fact in this episode about the relationship between the United States and Morocco.

Algeria. North Africa. Biggest country on the African continent, 10th largest country in the world (by land mass). Cheap gas, though not as cheap as Libya. Also, wow, the French committed some serious war crimes with really brutal torture of POWs in the Algerian War from 1954 to 1962.

Libya is a country with a tumultuous past. Hilary Clinton never became president perhaps, at least in part, because of something that happened in Libya. A country with Greek, Roman, Ottoman, and Biblical History -- and a Level 4 DO NOT TRAVEL advisory from the US State Department.

Why did Sudan and South Sudan break up? Where do the White Nile and Blue Nile converge? And there are pyramids in Sudan?!?!

Zimbabwe and Zambia share the ALL CAPS AMAZING Victoria Falls, which is neither the world's tallest or world's widest waterfall, but it is the world's largest sheet of falling water.

Some British dude showed up to this massive lake in Africa and named it after his queen. Lake Victoria is either the 2nd or 3rd largest lake in the world, depending on what you consider a lake. Also, Uganda is a crazy incredible place for seeing lots of wildlife, including more than a 1,000 species of birds.
