If Asia was just as expensive as N.America/Europe i would have gone with Asia for sure.

I voted for Europe as most of my traveling there was when I was a child and it is easier for one to get around Europe in my opinion. (This based on the fact that I have been to South America, Africa and Asia).

Africa--biodiversity, geographic diversity, and ethno-linguistic diversity.

Bustling cities:
Cairo
Cape Town
Nairobi
Tunis
Lagos
Marrakech
Dakar
Accra
Bamako

The Sahara and the Namib
The Congo Basin
Lake Victoria
Victoria Falls
Table Mountain
Madagascar
Mt. Kilimanjaro
Kruger National Park
The Nile Delta
Maasai Mara

And the history:
Ancient Egypt
Mali
Ethiopia
The Mediterranean Empires

Plus, all-expenses paid covers a security detail for the more dangerous places, right?

Definitely the Americas. I'd start in Valdez, Alaska. Then I'd discover the wonders of the Canadian pacific coast, Vancouver included of course. Than, I'd venture to experience the stampede I'm Calgary, the CN tower in Toronto, Niigata falls and then, I'd be practicing my French both in Montreal as well as Quebec City. After that, I'd love to see NYC and Chicago once again, follow with some really tasty Cajun cuisine in Baton Rouge or New Orleans. Pay a visit to the Grand Canyon and enjoy some the world famous Cali way of life. I may skip Mexico (for obvious reasons) and take a trip to the past in Havana or enjoy some of the beaches either in Bahamas or the Dominican Republic. From there I'd go back to the Mayan riviera and head to Tikal and Antigua in Guatemala. Eat some pupusas in El Salvador, rest in Costa Rica and see with my own eyes the Panama Canal.
Then I'd take a boat to Cartagena, than bogota. After that, I'd go to Ecuador, and the Galápagos Islands. Espend some time in Peru and Bolivia, enjoy their marvels; lake titicaca, the nazca lines, Cuzco, tihuanaco, la Paz, Lima and so on. From there, I'd go to Manaus, and then Brasilia, and Salvador, São Paulo and of course; Rio de Janeiro and the Pao do azucar. After that, I'd go to Montevideo and then, Buenos Aires to eat some bife, drink mate and dance some tango. I'd go Ushuaia, just to say hello to Antarctica. Cross the Andes, visit the atacama desert, go to Santiago and from there, fly back to Mexico.
Oh, if only...if only
