Is North America the largest continent?

Yes, it is a continent although you spelt continent wrong. North America is the third largest continent, with the North Atlantic Ocean on the east, the North Pacific Ocean on the west, the Arctic Ocean on the north and South America on the south. North America has the second largest country in it called Canada. North America is also the only continent that has countries that border onto a total of three oceans, which is three fifths of all the oceans there are. The two countries they are are Canada, and the United States of America. In the Winter, you can walk from Alaska to Russia by crossing the Bering Strait Valley that freezes because its near the North Pole. It will only be 20 miles to do this.

It is in North America because it is in the Northern Hemisphere.
