i voted africa
coz i live in south africa
crime aside, we're living in a country where u have both 1st and 3rd world infrastructure...and personally i feel south africa is one of the best places for muslims at the mo...i love the country bcoz it's not perfect :)
 
I voted for Asia, it is such a diverse continent - take a look at middle east, russia, subcontinent, china, malaysia, indonesia, and japan; from deserts to mountain ranges of himalayas - so different in each place. I wish political situation could have been better.
 
ehhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! where is central america :rollseyes ??????? u may have put latin america instead of south america :blind:
 
I voted africa only because thats where im from. i havent lived there long enough to appreciate it.

i wouldnt mind going to asia too though :)

Central America is not a continent, it is a subcontinent of North America. However, it is culturally different to the US and Canada, and could be referred to as Latin America, grouped with South America.

Europe is not a proper continent, BTW. It should be referred to as far west Asia.

Central America needs it's own distinct heading. It is very different from either North or South America.
 
I voted North American simply because of Canada, not USA.. I would have voted Asia only because of middle east and Japan thats it, but I live in Canada.

P.s: you guys are going a bit off topic lol .

But it isn't a continent! If Central America gets a heading, then India, Siberia, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, North Africa, the Far East and Sub-Saharan Africa should get seperate headings. Continents (except Europe) are defined by their shape and location, not their culture.

i'd say asia is the best continent to live in because of its incredible diversity...its impossible to not find a country which would suit you..besides, asia is developing fast..

That is true. The only problem is, does that make Central America part of South or part of North America?

I'm currently having a similar argument with my RE teacher!

Central America has two narrow areas of land which separate it from the rest of the Americas, one in southern Mexico and one in Panama. Since the Mexican one is considerably wider than the Panamanian one, it is connected more to North America, and thus, is part of that continent.

Oddly except for Europe I find all of the Continents to be very similar. They each have vast cold regions, hot regions, Mountainous areas Sea Coasts and a large desert. Areas that are undeveloped, Farming regions and large populated cities. Europe is the only continent that lacks some of the diversity. I do not know of any large dessert in Europe. Besides Europe is the only continent to start and end in the letter E all the Rest start and end with the letter A.

I think you can find pretty much the same things on any continent. When thinking of preferences perhaps it would be more accurate to think in terms of a specific Country, Or in the case of large countries in terms of a specific State/Provence.

i'll say this in plain english...you akhi...are causing trouble.

reason?

no other bengalis (including me and my relatives and friends) hates the malaysians...we love and respect them as muslims...and living wuite close to them, we were not treated differently. they were great.

you have no proof that they hate us. its just your opinion...mind i said 'yours'.

back on topic...

i chose Europe...although coutries like France are a bit of trouble, UK is still the best place...methinks

:w:
 
I agree with F Y it is a difficult issue to conclude which is a better place to live in. I think for a muslim it is important to live where you can practise to the best of your ability irrespective of which country.
Where ever you are you have to be able to easly access the mosque,get halal food and live in an islamic atmosphere.
The whole world is Allahs world and He knows best which is the best place to live.

Yes, Bengalis do not hate Malaysians as I am a Bengali I haven't even met a Malaysian, actually this is the first time I heard such a thing!

I chose Antartica even though I live in Europe! And I still am wondering why! But I think the reason could be that there are a few people living there mainly the Inuits and this continenet is fast travelling into the sea due to global warming or should I write becoming part of the sea, anyhow it is where the creatures are becoming extinct such as polar bears and Arctic foxes and the continent is, in my opinion, beautiful and it seems so pure, the snow and mountains and even the air and sea becasue the world may lose all this beauty someday, so probably that is why I chose it.

Although all continents have their advantages and disadvantages. Every continent is beautiful in its own way.
