It is. :p

It enslaved America, Africa and Asia (yeah, Antarctic and Oceanic aren't really continents I think, they're classified as one but)...Every other continent has been controlled by Europe at some time. It's the most powerfull one (maybe was), and yet it's the smallest one too. In it were Greece and Roman Empire, mighty nations which at some point had conquered nearly all of the known world back then. I could go on. :P

But enslaving people makes it a bad continent.

It simply shows how powerfull Europe was (and is?). And maybe it IS bad, but back then it WASN'T bad, if you get what I mean.

No it doesn't. Enslaving people makes it even better.

Europe recently overtook the US and Canada when it comes to average standard of living. Hadn't it been for Canada's high HDI we would have done it ages ago. :D

How do you mean? And what means HDI? High Definiton Indiscrimination? Holy Doll Incest? Hairy Drooly Icecream?

The average standard of living is higher in Europe than in US and Canada. HDI = Human Development Index. The index the UN uses to measure the standard of living in a country. Norway currently has the highest HDI in the world btw. :P

Yeah, but Scandinavia is a very large area with very less people living in it. Plus life is very good there from what I've heard, to say it so. :P

I vote for the European just because of Rayman being French and all, so I feel that's the original real deal box art.

European box art seems to have more thought put into it- but half the time the USA boxart is on the instruction manual *coughjak3cough*.

By the way, Greece wasn't a united nation until the XIXth century.

Thus? You do know about Achilles, Heracles, Troy, and all those famous stories right? There is some truth in those.

Could someone post pictures of various box arts by the way?

Now, we have a whole world to watch out for. If one country decides to enslave other countries, the whole world will turn against that country. But back then, there was no such a thing. How many slaves one had, showed how powerfull one was, both for individuals and countries. Back then, it was a good thing.
