Asia is the world's largest and most populous continent. It covers 8.6% of the Earth's total surface area (or 29.4% of its land area) and, with almost 4 billion people, it contains more than 60% of the world's current human population.

Asia can be divided into six regions, each possessing distinctive physical, cultural, economic, and political characteristics including Southwest Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia , East Asia, Russian Asia, Central Asia. Southeastern Asia has the heaviest rainfall of the entire Asiatic region.

Although Asia's economy is predominantly agricultural, regions where power facilities, trained labor, modern transport, and access to raw materials are available have developed industrially. Japan, China, Russian Asia, South Korea, Taiwan, Turkey, and Israel are distinguished for their industrialization. China and India are making considerable strides in this direction.
