Hi friend! Hope this helps!

The continent's estimated 2016 population is over 738 million. Europe is the second-smallest continent by surface area and covers 10.18 million square kilometers (3.93 million square miles), or 2% of the Earth's surface and 6.8% of the world's land area. There are approximately 50 countries in Europe.

Answer:

The map does not cover the whole of Europe, because the continent has a population of 743 million people, compared to the US population of just 319 million people. In terms of size the two are almost even, with Europe only slightly bigger than the US (10.2 million sq km vs 9.8 million sq km) but this includes large parts of Russia.
