Continents
The map above shows the seven recognised continents of the World - Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australasia, Europe, North America and South America
Some authorities recognise only six continents combining either Europe and Asia (Eurasia) or North and South America (America) while others prefer a five continent model - Africa, Antarctica, Australasia, Eurasia, America
The pages on this site related to continents give information about the geography, climate, countries and demography.
