Continents are the large land masses that sit atop the Earth's crust, on tectonic plates having lighter material than the ocean plates.

There are seven continents. In order of decreasing size they are :

  1. Asia
  2. Africa
  3. North America
  4. South America
  5. Antarctica
  6. Europe
  7. Australia (sometimes erroneously referred to as Oceania)

The masses of Europe and Asia are linked, and still just barely separated from Africa. North and South America are joined by a narrow isthmus, Panama. The land areas of Earth might be considered large islands in the global ocean.
The 7 continents are: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and Antarctica. [Sometimes Oceania]
