Africa is the continent that has 22 countries.

The two supercontinents are Laurasia and Gondwana. Laurasia formed in the Northern Hemisphere, while Gondwana formed in the Southern Hemisphere. These supercontinents eventually broke apart to form the continents we see today.

North America and South America = America

Europe, Africa, and Asia = Afro-Eurasia

Asia is the largest continent in terms of both land area and population. Africa is the second largest continent in terms of land area.

There are two continents in the Americas:

North America and South America.

Antarctica has the least number of countries with zero. Seven countries currently claim land on Antarctica, although these claims are not recognized and are disputed. They include Argentina, Australia, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway, and the United Kingdom. In a legal sense, the United States and Russia reserve the right to make claims on Antarctica.

Of the populated continents, South America has the fewest countries with twelve.

The largestet continent is located in the South. Another Answer: The largest continent is Asia which is in the Northern Hemisphere.

1. Asia - 17,139,445 square miles (44,391,162 square km)

2. Africa - 11,677,239 square miles (30,244,049 square km)

3. North America - 9,361,791 square miles (24,247,039 square km)

4. South America - 6,880,706 square miles (17,821,029 square km)

5. Antarctica - About 5,500,000 square miles (14,245,000 square km)

6. Europe - 3,997,929 square miles (10,354,636 square km)

7. Australia - 2,967,909 square miles (7,686,884 square km)

European countries that explored the North American continent include Spain, France, England, and the Netherlands. Each of these nations established colonies and trading posts in various regions of North America during the Age of Exploration.

There are actually 7 continents: Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America. The term "The Americas" is sometimes used to refer to North America and South America collectively but they are still considered separate continents.
