people_controller.rb:
class PeopleController < ApplicationController
end

the PeopleController shall handle all people (asia, europe, america, africa, australia):

but i'd like to have routes like:
- /asia/12 -> PeopleController.show params=>{:id=>12, :continent=>'asia'} :get
- /america  -> PeopleController.index params=>{:continent=>'america'} :get
- /africa/3/edit -> PeopleController.edit params=>{:id=>3, :continent=>'africa'} :get
- /europe/20 -> PeopleController.update params=>{:id=>20, :continent=>'europe'} :put
- /australia  -> PeopleController.create params=>{:continent=>'australia'} :post

the question is how to create such routes?

it would be nice to get helper:
people_path(:continent=>'asia') => /asia => People.index with params {:continent=>'asia'}
people_path(:continent=>'europe') => /europe => People.index with params {:continent=>'europe'}
people_path(@person, :continent=>'asia') => /asia/12 => People.show with params {:continent=>'asia', :id=>12}

and furthermore i need the nested routes like map.resource :people, :has_many=>:cars
