Tier List of Continents by Prestige

Tier 1 - Europe, Asia (big boys accounting for 40%+ of global GDP at basically any point in history)

Tier 2 - North America (a backwater until ~1800s, but better than other options)

Tier 3 - South America, Oceania (decent at one point in history I suppose, Mayans and Australia and all that)

Tier 4 - Antarctica (better than the other option)

Tier 5 - Africa (self explanatory)

"If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them." - Bruce Lee
