Now I understand all your weird rants. You were lost as as what I was trying to say.

After doing a bit of research I just found out that most Spanish speaking countries say it is just one continent, whereas most English speaking countries consider it to be two.
That is ing weird that they can't make a decision on something this major.
I think I agree that America is just one continent though even though the Panama Canal cuts into two these days.
I still don't see why Europe is considered a continent.
It should be called Eurasia.
I do understand Oceanica though.

lol non-americans not educated about the continents. no wonder you've been in a constant state of civil war since el spaniards pulled out of the hole known as non-USA america. you don't deserve to be called AMERICANs, much less united.

Yeah, you're the only ones that got it right. The rest of the World is wrong.

Just like with the inches measurement system. Is so much more precise and makes so much more sense than the metric system.

Yup, I'll give you this one...everything in medicine is based off the metric system and drug calcs used to be a pain in the ass for me tbh.

The entire continent of South America has a smaller GDP than the top 3 states of the US (economic ranking). The US is America on the world stage and thusly its residents are called Americans by people around the world.

Let's not get into that please. And like DD said, it's not as if we don't use the metric system for everything that actually matters

That's almost as bad as any professional team from Dallas right now.

I was talking about how we don't separate the Continent in North, Central and South down here and the dude goes on a tangent talking about mail adresses.

In modern English, Americans generally refers to residents of the United States; among native English speakers this usage is almost universal, with any other use of the term requiring specification.^[1] However, this default use has been the source of controversy, particularly among Latin Americans, who feel that using the term solely for the United States misappropriates it.<sup>[2][3]

This makes me wonder why they choose the name "Latin America" instead of just "America".

You can bet your sweet Manu loving ass that if you were abroad and someone accused you of being an American, you would deny it.</sup>

"we don't separate the continent"

I guess China and France are both in the same "Eurasia" continent

We do separate Europe and Asia.
