TROPICUM Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 (edited) I was taught there are seven continents: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and Antarctica. But apparently for some countries there are only 6; combining both Americas. Edited July 20, 2022 by TROPICUM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wastedpotential Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I was taught that there are 7 continents in school. I suppose we can argue that there are two large interconnected landmasses, Afro-Eurasia and the Americas, but can be split into 5 culturally distinct 'continents' (plus Australia and Antarctica).

North America ( from Mexico and above), Central America (From Guatemala to Panama) and South America (From Colombia to Argentina)... the whole "North America & South America" thing is something white people started teaching in their countries to feel apart and superior from the rest of Latinamerica (which encompasses all spanish speaking countries in that 1 American continent , and this is a cultural division, not geographical) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latin America doesn't only include Spanish-speaking countries btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
