For instance, 212.x.y.z is "known" to be on one continent, and so on -  
but how do you leverage that into a 212/8 routing entry?

Well, suppose we know 212/8 is used in Europe. A network that is  
present in say, North America and Europe then has the routers in Europe  
that talk to the routers in America filter out all 212/8 more specifics  
and only announce the aggregate instead. In the simple version this  
only works if there is full interconnection for all 212/8 destination  
in Europe.

And if everyone gives transit to anyone. Ideal world.
