Asia is the Earth’s largest and most populous continent, located primarily in the eastern and northern hemispheres. Given its size and diversity, the concept of Asia—a name dating back to classical antiquity—may actually have more to do with human geography than physical geography. Asia varies greatly across and within its regions with regard to ethnic groups, cultures, environments, economics, historical ties and government systems. Asia is home to several language families and many language isolates. Most Asian countries have more than one language that is natively spoken.
