2 List of countries by continental group
Please note that countries have been grouped with those for which similar general advice may apply within recognisable geographic areas. For example, the term 'Indian Subcontinent' is used rather than 'Middle South Asia' which may be less readily recognised by users. These groupings are entirely pragmatic and have no political significance.
