Sounds too much like it's a country
This article reads very much like Europe is a country. It should really be re-written. For instance, it talks about the average age of Europeans being so and so much. I've read it differs alot between countries. Also, politics differ alot between the countries. I feel there are alot of people in the United States who think Europe is one country. Shouldn't we inform them that's it's just a continent?
Muslim population
The article says there are 15 million Muslims in Europe and I was wondering where that number was gotten from. Is it referring to just the EU? I've seen estimates range from 20-100 million depending on what sources/if Turkey is included or not. 15 seems a little low? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AdamV (talk)

Tallest Mountain
The article states that Mt Elbrus is the tallest mountain in Europe. However, Elbrus is located in South-East Russia, which is often classed as Asia rather than Europe- hence why Mont Blanc is also sometimes called the tallest mountain in Europe. Perhaps this article should give special mention to Mont Blanc alongside Elbrus?
