I had an argument with a friend of mine and am curious to your answers.
State the number of continents and name them.

The seven-continent model is usually taught in China, India, parts of Western Europe and most English-speaking countries[citation needed], including Australia[24] and England[25]
The six-continent combined-Eurasia model is preferred by the geographic community[citation needed], Russia, Eastern Europe, and Japan.
The six-continent combined-America model is used in Spanish-speaking countries[26] and in some parts of Europe including Greece (equivalent 5 inhabited continents model (i.e. excluding Antarctica) still also found in texts).[18]
Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America
That Eurasia is just crap IMO - its Europe and Asia - they are not one
It will be 8 once California breaks off and floats away
From what I remember in school, it's 7.
My friend who went to university in Mexico City said there were 4 continents.
The Americas, Austrialia, Antartica and EurAsiaAfrica.
Then he told me the highest mountain peak in the Americas was in Veracruz.
I told him he was on drugs. There were 7 continents. North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Antartica, and the highest peak was Mount McKinley in Alaska at over 20,000 feet.
My Mom said 7. My step-Dad said 7.
I was just curious what you guys remembered from school geography.
Your friend’s point of view makes a lot of sense to me. Dividing Europe & Asia at the Ural Mountains has never made sense to me.
Whether you should spit or combine of North & South America is defiantly more subjective then most people our taught in their schools, which may differ from country to country. A case could be made that the 2 are one continuous land mass, or that North America narrows to a narrow strip of land & South America then mushrooms out into a completely different continent.
The same could be said about the spiting or combining of Asia & Africa. If you do separate them, it’s a coin toss as to whether you consider the Sinai Peninsula as part of Asia or Africa because it really is its own little landmass that connects the two. I really could go either way on these issues.

Has anyone said 7 yet because it's seven :p
Have any of you that say it has to be 7 because that's what your taught in American school ever considered the possibility that the American way of doing things isn't the only way.
