Ok this is not really a battle between the two continents to see which is better. It is really just comparing the two and looking at similarities and differences. In this round I will be reflecting on the many long car rides in which I stared out the window for hours and analysing the scenery of the areas.
Europe to strike first! Well Europe is pretty diverse (no pun intended).In the north and western countries such as Germany and France it has rolling hills sprinkled with wooded patches coloured with fifty shades of green. In the Alps of southern Germany, Austria, and Switzerland there are tall incredibly tall mountans with high peaks and low bases the points looke sharpened and capped with snow all year round. It is alot of beauty in a small area. There are also more regions than I can fit into one paragraph such as Britain and Ireland, Italy, Spain and other Mediterranean countries. All around it seems concentrated.
America has it's own uniqueness to it. In the north and west coast it has dramatic hills and mountains covered with tall pine trees of dark green. In the west it has many leagues of flat plains with maybe some hills here and there. Looking at it I feel bored at the nothingness of it yet at the same time awestruck at the utter hugeungousness (that is a word look it up) of it all! It is so wide open and huge and although there is not a whole lot to look at like Europe, it has it's own unique beauty that might not be appreciated by some people. There is also the desert of the Southwest, the Farmlands of the Midwest, the
Appa-whatever mountains of the East, and more. But all around it seems very large and spread out like a little bit of butter spread over a large piece of bread, it may not seem like much compared to the same amount of butter spread over a small piece, but it is really the same.
