🌍 How can one country be on two continents?
Imagine crossing a bridge and going from Europe to Asia in just a few minutes, without leaving the same country… 😱
That's exactly what happens in Turkey!

🗺️ In this episode:
🇹🇷 Anatolia, the Asian part of Turkey
🇪🇺 Eastern Thrace, located in Europe
🌊 The Bosphorus, which runs through Istanbul
🏙️ Istanbul, a city located on two continents
🌊 The connection between the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara
🧭 The geographical boundary between Europe and Asia
📜 Why this geographical position has played a major role in history and trade
The most incredible part?
You can be in Europe, cross a bridge over the Bosphorus, and find yourself in Asia just a few minutes later… while still being in Istanbul. 🤯
The boundary between Europe and Asia is partly a geographical convention, but Turkey's position remains extraordinary: one country with territory on two continents.
🌍 One country. Two continents. One city connecting them.
