Africa

Africa is the world's second largest and second most populous continent. At about 30.2 million square kilometers (11.7 million square miles) including adjacent islands, it covers six percent of the Earth's total surface area and 20.4 percent of the total land area. With 1.1 billion people as of 2013, it accounts for about 15% of the world's human population. The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, both the Suez Canal and the Red Sea along the Sinai Peninsula to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The continent includes Madagascar and various archipelagos. It has 54 fully recognized sovereign states ("countries"), nine territories and two de facto independent states with limited or no recognition.
The continent is also home to a vast array of wildlife, such as lions, elephants, baboons, zebras, chimpanzees, ostriches, giraffes, vultures, rhinos, leopards, warthogs, antelopes, hippos, cheetahs, crocodiles, hyenas, wildebeests, lemurs, gorillas, okapis, oxen, buffaloes, and meerkats.
Africa's population is the youngest among all the continents; 50% of Africans are 19 years of age or younger.

==Trivia==
*In the closing credits of Cars 2, there is a travel brochure that shows the name "Africar", which would be a pun on Africa. However, in Planes, the proper name is shown on the world map that shows the course of the Wings Around the Globe.
*In the novelization of Alice Through the Looking Glass, Alice Kingsleigh's sister, Margaret, is established to have become a missionary spreading Christianity in Africa since the events of Alice in Wonderland."Her sister, on a mission to spread Christianity in Africa, agreed, no doubt." (Alice Through the Looking Glass novelization (Chapter 1, p. 9) by Kari Sutherland)
*Africa is the only inhabited continent that does not serve as a setting for a Pixar film.
