Similitudes
In 1999, the life expectancy was the same in the European Union and in Asia (in average 72 years old).
In 2003, the age of military service was the same in the European Union and
in Asia (18 years old).
The age of the military service is the same (18 years old) in the two continents because they both think that the adult hood start at this age. Moreover, the fact to have children lengthens the life, it why, even if there is more poverty and a medicine less advanced in Asia, the life expectancy is the same in the two continent.

Rest of the world
In 1999, a inhabitant in E.U. had twice the Asian's possession, according to
the GIP/inhabitant.
In 1999, the dependency ratio is 4.5 point higher in E.U. than in Asia.
E.U. is more turned to the world, exchanges more, than Asia. It is also a developed continent. It's why it is richer than Asia. It involves a bigger dependency ratio because, with industrialisation, the labour is less important. It is also more expensive so there a phenomenon of delocalisation towards cheaper country.
In 1999, out of 100 children between 10 and 14 years old, there were 34.2 more
children workers in Asia than in E.U.
In 1999, the alphabetisation ratio was 17 point higher in E.U. than in Asia.
In 1999, the studies duration was 12 years longer in E.U. than in Asia.
In 2001, the proportion of Internet users in E.U. is higher by 8.6 points than
in Asia.
In 1999, the first religion in Asia was the Hinduism whereas it was the Catholicism
in E.U.
Children
in Asia have a standard of living lower than in E.U. so they don't go to school
as long as European children. In consequence the number of people who can't
write or read is more important in Asia than in E.U. and so is the number of
internet users.
Those facts are probably caused by the poverty of the continent : insufficiency
of school, parents need some help of their children…
In 1999,the "IDH" in E.U. was superior by 0.294 points than the "IDH"
in Asia.

In 1998, the proportion of children dead before one year old is 4.3 points higher
in Asia than in E.U.
In 1999, the number of children for a women is exactly twice higher in Asia
than in E.U.
In 1999, the number of inhabitants in Asia is superior by 2 672 000 000 persons
compared to the number of inhabitants in E.U.
In 1999, a person lives in average 6 more years in E.U. than in Asia.
The
society of Asia is younger, they have more children but the proportion of them
dead before one year is more important. The poverty is a major cause of those
facts because women can't have contraception. Besides, the malnutrition kills
children who are too weaker to resist to illnesses.
The poverty is the cause of the inferiority of the "IDH", like we've
said in "Social and cultural".
In 2000, out of 100 trees, Asia destroyed 0.5 trees whereas E.U. planted 0.2
trees.
In 1999, the Asian area was superior by 40 759 300 square km than the E.U. one.
In 1999, the proportion of people who live in the country was 59 points higher
in Asia than in E.U.
In 1999, the proportion of cultivable surface comparatively to the one of the
world was 5.5 time lower in E.U. than in Asia.
In 1999, in the country lands, there were 358.6 more inhabitants in E.U. than
in Asia.
E.U. has a smaller area than Asia but it respects more the environment, because
it's a developed continent, people are informed and know that is important.
The cultivable surface is so smaller in E.U.. But the density in the country
is superior than in Asia because the relation between the number of inhabitants
and the area is more important in U.E. than in Asia.
People live more in towns in U.E. because the third sector is more developed
in U.E. and it is situated in towns.
In 1999, the proportion of women in parliamentary assembly is inferior by 15,04
points in Asia than in E.U.
In 1999, the number of condemned people by the death law (in relation to the
percentage in the world ) was 35 points higher in Asia than in E.U.

In 1999, the proportion of people who didn't vote was 27.5 points higher in
Asia than in E.U.
Women are not as present in the parliament in Asia as in U.E., because women didn't have important places in their society and they changed recently. Death law is abolished in U.E. (and not in Asia) because human rights are more respected there. The military budget in U.E is more important than in Asia because the Europeans protect and respect more the peace or have more countries to protect : they are more open to world. Moreover, they are richer so can have more equipment.
