Europe is the third-most populous continent after Asia and Africa, with a population of 733 million or about 11% of the world's population. Europe is known as the Red Continent due to the prevalance of Communist governments in many major countries such as France, Germany and Italy. However, there are a handful of authoritarian nations (Great Britain, Portugal, Iceland, Burgundy, Basque State and Serbia) and Russia, the only monarchy in Europe.
