If this is how we're going to think about it, then...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographical_center_of_the_United_States

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographical_midpoint_of_Europe

Asia is a bit more complicated.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geography_of_Asia

Per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Asia - "There are several places
that claim to be the geographic center of Asia, for example Kyzyl, the
capital of Tuva  in the Russian Federation, and a village 200 miles (320 km)
north of Ürümqi, the capital of the Xinjiang region of China."

Cheers,
