Europe is a fake continent you goober
One could say the map simply counted transcontinental countries as where the majority of the population lives, but French Guiana isn't colored like Europe.
Also interesting that the southern border of Mexico is apparently the border between North and South America.
Yeah the most interesting thing about this map is the weird biases on display.
Personal guess?
This was made by a white supremacist to try and push replacement theory/14 words type fears without tipping off the normies
Wait when was Russia part of Europe.
Western part is in Europe, east of the Caucasus mountains is Asia. Map is slightly ehh in that regard.
I think you might be confusing the Ural Mountains with the Caucasus Mountains?
since 80% of its population was in the european side
Ive been lied to my whole life!
Now do “chance of dying of any cause under the age of 20” per continent.
so you want an industrialization index?
Looks at Australia
I was already born, so my chances of being born elsewhere are actually much lower, I think
Someone doesn't know about the great rebirth of 2026.
It's the next logical step after so many Raptures, ya know? 🤷🏼♂️
Damn, Ukraine really went crazy with its 2026 counteroffensive.
From the Sea to the Sea to the Sea to the Sea to the Sea
"Wait, it's all Ukraine?"
"Always has been."

okay. americas, eurasia, africa, australia, antarctica, oceania. happy?
Eurasia, then other Asia
That's an odd way to divide it up. Without Mexico, the US would be much, much lower. Every continent map shows Russia as part of Asia.
For this specific purpose it probably does make sense to consider Russia part of Europe. If we go by the common Europe-Asia dividing line of the Ural mountains then a large majority of Russia's population is in the European half, so most Russian births are probably in the European bit
The weird thing about the Americas to me is that only Mexico, the US, and Canada are counted. I don't think I've ever seen anyone that draws a dividing line between North and South America do so anywhere except at the Darien Gap, nor have I seen anyone put all of the Caribbean islands in South America. Iberoamerica or similar cultural region terms, sure, but South America the continent?
It's a very mixed bag on this map, since it was labeled "continent" but they separated Russia.

Hehe, when I made the comment above, my brain had changed the sentence to be:
Chance of having been born in each continent in 2026
Which sounded funny to me.
oof ouch my asthenosphere
For any parents trying to find their new baby, starting the search in Asia seems like a good strategy! Book a flight immediately after birth.
*on preferably
New year's resolution: beat the odds and be not born in Asia.
Technically the odds would be with "not born in Asia", 50.31%.
