| PDF said: It was years ago on VGC when I first saw this was an issue. Getting into an argument over something that I thought was considered fact. (7 model system) I think most South American countries are taught on the 6 continent system(Americas) which is why they are offended at the US calling themselves America. I personally like the 6 model system with Eurasia as one continent. Looking at the map I think it makes the most sense. |
North America has more legitimacy to be it's own continent than say something like Europe. North America has it's own tectonic plate, only connected to South America via a small land strip like Africa is to Asia and the small land strip is inaccessible to walk or drive across since it's a large swamp.
