What are the only two continents totally north 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.
