Carl. Itâs strange you not pushing a Blue Oval (the only car for me) around the track but I remain a staunch Carl Edwards fan who in my opinion was screwed out of the 2011 Sprint Cup Championship or at least Co-championship. Get up on that wheel and win it this year. Bill Clark, Florence Kentucky.
By the end of the 10th century, the Cholan Empire controlled trade along both eastern and western coasts in the south and would extend their empire to Sri Lanka and the Maldive Islands. The arrival of Vasco da Gama from Portugal in 1498 established a sea route from Europe to India.
Evidently the first man to define the eastern continental boundary between Europe and Asia pretty much as it exists today is Philip Johan von Strahlenberg (1676â1747), a Swedish army officer, explorer, and scholar of German descent.he surprising difficulty of defining Europe as a continent can be seen not only in differing definitions of its boundaries, or the bewildering number of candidates for its most extreme points north, south, east, and west, but even in disagreements over which locale constitutes the geographical center of Europe.
