Europe is considered to be separated from Asia by the watershed of the Ural Mountains, the Ural River, the Caspian Sea, the Greater Caucasus, the Black Sea, and the Bosporus Strait.

France, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, and the United Kingdom are transcontinental.

This means that their main land areas are in Europe while pockets of their territories are located on other continents separated from Europe by large bodies of water.

Europe shares the landmass of Eurasia with Asia.
