Must have been a long time ago as you have spelt Leicester incorrectly!

I can't answer, as we are not part of Europe
Brexit didn't extricate you from the British Isles.
Count me among those tired of media portmanteau.
Cleveland, OhioIreland. Europe.
And for a pretty detailed look at TB's worldwide presence, can I humbly suggest checking out the map in my signature.
EDIT: @Stumbo beat me to it, as he always does...
I smell a liar. I am finding it hard to believe that Antarctica is tied with Australia and beating out Africa.

Leicester, Leicester, Leicester, Leicester, Leicester... or is is Lester? Yes, it was 1635, quite a while ago.
Where it actually gets interesting is when they got here to Virginia, and asked my Great (×14) Grand-father who he was and where he was from. He replied; I am William, of Huncote. They wrote down William Honeycutt. Thus proving if our common language made any sense, lackadaisical would have something to do with a shortage of flowers.
The little community is still there though, and is at the top of my bucket list of places to visit. I'd love to play at a place there called The Red Lion, an old pub where I read there has been an ale-house type establishment for at least 400 years. Just to say I did, and see if anyone's face looks familiar.

Maybe there’s a secret bassist colony down there...
The two most common alternative groupings that I've seen have N. America + S. America considered as a single continent, "America", and Europe + Asia considered as a single continent, "Eurasia". So you have six continents if you accept either one of these as accurate, and five if you accept both.
