Anybody have ties to the continent in some form or another? It could be work or something like that.

Ultimately, we care about is salient and relevant to us. Abstraction don't usually have strong feeling attached to it.

I am connected to Asia simply because my family was from there and that America fought in Vietnam, changing the lives of millions.

So people in America have lot and lot of opinions about the war fought there.

What did America do in Africa? Somalia. That warranted a whole movie. What else? I heard there was some fighting in West Africa against terrorism. America sell some tanks to the Egyptians.
