That's kind of odd as Europe (the Continent - 10,180,000 km2) is actually larger in area than the United States (the Country - 9,826,675 km2).

I take it you mean the EU - which covers less than half the area of Europe?

Yes, you are correct. I pulled up a map off Google that overlayed 'europe' over the continental US. That map omitted Ukraine and Turkey, which are included in Europe (among other non-EU countries).

Only a small part of Turkey is in Europe - making Istanbul one of the few transcontinental cities :-)
