@Haris
At least I understand it and can express in it.
By the way I know 4 languages + english (more or less).

@mayazir Most of the people are taught that there are 7 continents (Asia, North America, South America, Africa, Europe, Australia and Antarctica). There are some textbooks that say there are 5/6 continents ( they combine Asia and Europe to Eurasia and/or North America and South America to America)

 

[stewmath]

it is difficult to present the tourist agency selling tours on nonexistent сontinent

Just because you say it doesnt exist it doesnt make it true. Do you think your like the god of geography or something??

 

[Radu054]

I don't know where you learned geography, but Europe and Asia are two different continents. As far as I know there exists only the Eurasian plate.

There is a strict definition of the word "continent".
Continent is a huge part of land surrounded by ocean.
Look at the map, Europe is part of Euroasian continent, and if in your countries teach different, so your countries have poor education.
You cant just memorize, you must to think, look at the world map and try to reason.
North and South Americas are 2 continents, Europe and Asia is just 1 continent - Eurasia.
Africa cant be part of afro-euroasian continent, because there is no any afro-eurasian continent.
But Europe and Asia are different parts of the world...
Parts, not continents...
From point of view of geography Europe and Asia are just 1 continent and who cares about wiki, google and your education program?

Education is definitely about more than memorization... but by that same token, I would say that to be truly educated you must be willing to open your mind to other possibilities and ideas, and to the notion that sometimes there simply isn't just one answer.

Your definition of continent is certainly valid, but the fact remains that there are many other reputable sources (both online and in textbooks) that offer a different definition.

So while I don't appreciate the demeaning tone of your posts, I hope you can at least take solace in the fact that you opened us North American folks to the possibility of another way of defining the world continents.

So Iceland, Hawaii and Madagascar are continents, correct? That's why I love this forum, so much to learn here!
