What in the World? Name that Continent


Situated in the Nubian Desert to the west of the Red Sea, I am Bir Tawil, a small four-sided area that is not claimed by the countries to the north (EGYPT) and south (SUDAN) of me. I am also located to the west of Hala’ib Triangle, a border dispute between the two countries. You will also find me to the southeast of Lake Nasser, a manmade lake created when the Aswan High Dam was built. On what continent am I on?















The answer is found below!


















Answer: AFRICA
