Europe vs. EU vs. Eurozone vs. Schengen ...

About this episode

Everyone knows that Europe is one of the seven continents in the world, right? 

Well, there is actually a problem with that. For starters, where exactly does Europe end and Asia begin?

On top of that, there is more than one Europe. While there is a geographic Europe, there is also a political, economic, and cultural Europe, and every one of those is slightly different from the other. 

Learn more about the differences between Europe, the EU, the Eurozone, and the Schengen Zone on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
