How many continentsn the world?

Answer 1

This is actually a difficult question to answer because it ranges from 4-7 continents. Here are the possible outcomes:

7 continents:

-North America

-South America

-Europe

-Africa

-Asia

-Australia

-Antarctica

(This is the most commonly used)

[6 continents are rarely used because you would have to combine either Europe/Asia, Europe/Africa, Africa/Asia or North/South America, and if you only combine one why not the other?]

5 continents:

-America (North/South America)

-Eurasia (Europe/Asia)

-Africa

-Australia

-Antarctica

4 continents:

-America (North/South America)

-Eurafrasia (Europe/Africa/Asia)

-Australia

-Antarctica
