Europe is the second smallest continent in the world, its land area comprising only two percent of the earth's total surface. Even so, Europe is home to over 730 million people, all members of interrelated yet distinct populations. From Spaniards and Icelanders in the west to Nogai and Saami in the east, Europe is home to more than 100 different ethnic groups.
Jeffrey E. Cole is professor of anthropology and chair of the Department of Anthropology at Connecticut College, New London, CT.
