Asia is the world's largest and most populous continent, located in the eastern and northern hemisphere. It covers 8.6% of the earths total surface area (or 29.9% of its land area) and with approximately 4 billion people, it hosts 60% of the world's current human population.

Asia is traditionally defined as part of the land mass of Eurasia — with the western portion of the latter occupied by Europe located to the east of the Suez Canal, east of the Ural Mountains and south of the Caucasus Mountains (or the Kuma-Manych Depression) and the Caspain and Black Seas. It is bounded on the east by the Pacific Ocean, on the south by the Indian Ocean and on the north by the Artic Ocean. Given its size and diversity, Asia a toponym dating back to classical antiquity is more a cultural concepts incorporating a number of Regions and peoples than a homogenous physical entity .

The wealth of Asia differs very widely between and within each region. This is due to its vast size and huge range of different cultures, environments, historical ties and government systems. In terms of nominal GDP, Japan has the largest economy on the continent and the second largest in the world. In Purchasing power parity term, however, the People's Repulic Court has the largest economy in Asia and the second largest in the world.
