South America. The equator passes through South America.
The equator passes through South America, Africa, and Asia.
Most of South America is south of the equator and therefore in the Southern hemisphere. Venezuela, Guyana, French Guiana and Suriname are completely north of the equator. Brazil, Colombia and Equador are divided by the equator. The other South American countries (Peru, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Bolivia and Falkland Islands) lie south of the equator
The only continents entirely north of the equator are Europe and North America (depends though if you consider the americas as one or two continents). South east asia (countries like Indonesia and New Guinea) is south of the equator, the rest is north of it. That makes Asia a continent which is on both hemispheres. Likewise this applies to Africa, where the bigger part of the continent is north of the equator; and as well to south america, where countries like Venezuela and Guyana are north and the big rest south of the equator. Australia is south of the equator, although there are a few islands north of the equator, that are considered to belong to the continent of Australia.
The continent south of North America is South America.
Antarctica, which encompasses the South Pole and which recently has been renamed the South Continent, by international agreement, has to be the southernmost continent. Australia is the only other continent entirely south of the equator, however South America stretches further south than Australia.
