What a bunch of 'tards in Europe. North and South America are one continent, but yet Europe and Asia are two?

It's all about distancing yourself from the brown people.

Africa for least. I'd love to visit, but between the genocide, the AIDS, the disease, the wildlife, the civil wars, the poverty, the starvation, the disease, the most inhumane treatment of other human beings on the planet, the lowest life expectancy and the disease... Well, let's just say you'd have to be pretty damn retarded to want to live there.

For most, I ended up going with North America, because as much as I want to travel and see the world, I picture myself ending up somewhere in North America (or Hawaii, which I think counts by default).

Least: Africa
Most: Europe

Europe is retarded for many more reasons than that.

Africa for least but I don't know where Costa Rica belongs (North or South America) as a favorite.

New Zealanders don't bow to the fascist continental regimes? Thrown off the chains of continent repression? :Q

Awesome! That's where I'm moving. Screw you, continents!

Oceania isn't a continent. New Zealand is an island nation. Do you understand what a continent is?

Hogwash. Oceania: "the term is used today in many languages to define one of the continents." If the Europeans get to artifically divide themselves from Asia but link North and South America, we get to lump every island in the south pacific into one continent.

Africa - Do Not Want

I chose S. America - at least the dictators there don't try to hide that they are dictators.

OP = pwned

Amend the pole!!! And spell Australia right this time.

 

[ViviTheMage]

oddly, as much as I have travelled, I still would prefer to live in NA.

I would NOT want to live in Africa.

 

[SlitheryDee]

Africa is least.

North America is most. To be more precise, I'd like to live farther north in North America than I do now.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Least? Asia

Most? Probably Europe

There's no firm definition for the word 'continent', but most people do not consider Oceania to be a continent, especially around here. I've actually never seen Oceania referred to as a continent until this thread If you look at Wikipedia's list of continent permutations you'll see that Oceania isn't listed in a single one of their five continental definitions, although there's a note at the bottom that says Oceania is sometimes used in place of Australia.

I also stumbled onto this article, claiming NZ is on a microcontinent called Zealandia, which I'd never heard of. But really in my opinion it doesn't make a lot of sense to include NZ on any of the major continents, we're quite clearly an island nation.

Wait....what?

North and South America are a single continent and should not be listed separately.

No.

No.

Do you have any good reason why not? Geographically speaking it's quite arbitrary to separate them.

Why are Europe and Asia considered two continents?

Because. And that's good enough for me.

From a geographical standpoint, how is that any more arbitrary than separating Africa from Europe/Asia?
