Cool except Europe is a sub-continent at best, not a continent.
Continents are generally identified by convention rather than any strict criteria.
My mom's ass is a sub-continent.
It's her most appealing feature!
Honestly at this point you're just being obnoxious
Oh shit, found the Europeans. lol
Interestingly, continents are super complex and there seems to be a continent hidden underneath the Mediterranean. A good YouTube video on the subject
Look at you with facts and shit.
You get a gold star buddy!
Why so aggressive? Did someone hurt you?
So, there's 4 continents? Abya Yala, Afrasia, Australia and Antarctica
Scratch that, there's three. Australia is just an island with overgrown ego.
It's Turtle Islands all the way down, man.
If it were divided by continental tectonic plates, it would be welcome news for Southern Asia and most of the Middle East, but terrible news for New Zealand, Iceland, and the Caribbean.
The real problem is how slowly tectonic news travels.
And you're a fuckin nerd lmao
It's really weird what yanks some peoples chain. lol
