Are you saying that North America is one of the world's SIX continents? Maybe you should have paid attention in the 4th grade!
Pretty basic stuff. You weren't told in like 4th grade?

http://geography.about.com/library/f...continents.htmHow many continents are on the earth?
A continent is one of several major land masses on the earth. There is no standard definition for the number of continents but you'll commonly find that the numbers six or seven are used. By most standards, there are a maximum of seven continents - Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America. Most students in the U.S. are taught that there are seven continents.
In Europe, many students are taught about six continents, where North and South America is combined to form a single America. Thus, these six continents are Africa, America, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, and Europe.
Many geographers and scientists now refer to six continents, where Europe and Asia are combined (since they're one solid landmass). Thus, these six continents are Africa, Antarctica, Australia, Eurasia, North America, and South America.

Continents of the World
The Definition of a Continent
A continent is a large body of land, above water, that has a natural geological border.
How Many Continents Are There?
Depending on how you count them, there are anywhere from 4 to 7 continents. The difference of opinion arises because some people consider Europe and Asia to be one continent, some people consider North and South America to be one continent, and a few people even consider Europe, Asia, and Africa to be one huge continent called Eurafrasia.
What are the Names of the Continents?
As mentioned above, not everyone agrees on exactly how the world is divided into continents, but these are the entities you will sometimes see referred to as continents:
Africa
Asia
Eurasia
Eurafrasia
Antarctica
Europe
Oceania
Australia
America
North America
South America

I suppose by this definition nobody is wrong.
The best way to keep a secret:- Tell everyone not to tell anyone.
Fake Shemp
Some people count it as the number of continents on a Risk board.

Risk is a brilliant game.
I think that's all we need to help us decide.

I think it's ridiculous that Europe and Asia are considered separate continents. It has no basis besides some typa cultural crap.I was just about to post something similar Vid.

I also think it's ridiculous that North and South America are considered by some to be one continent (America).
I always thought continents were large distinct land masses. North and South America are clearly distinct and Europe and Asia are not.

Do consider Europe a separate continent from Asia?Are you saying that North America is one of the world's SIX continents? Maybe you should have paid attention in the 4th grade!

It would be rather idiotic for you to say North and South America comprise one continent and then say Europe and Asia are separate.
