Eurasia is the world's largest continental area, encompassing all of Europe and Asia together as a single landmass. While Europe and Asia are traditionally treated as separate continents due to historical and cultural distinctions, some geographical models recognize them as one unified continent, making understanding Eurasia important for grasping the full scope of Earth's largest landmass.

Eurasien ist ein geographisch-geologischer Begriff für Europa und Asien als ein zusammengefasster Kontinent. Er hat eine Fläche von 55 Millionen Quadratkilometern und etwa 5,5 Milliarden Einwohner. Das Wort ist eine Amalgamierung aus Europa und Asien. Mit dem Begriff wird der Tatsache Rechnung getragen, dass Europa und Asien seit der Trias – also etwa seit 250 Millionen Jahren – Teile einer zusammenhängenden Landmasse sind: zunächst Teile des Superkontinents Pangaea, später Laurasias und heute Eurasiens. Der Großkontinent besteht geologisch aus vier großen tektonischen Platten, von denen die Eurasische Platte die größte ist, sowie aus mehreren kleinen Platten und Kratonen.
