Central America is NOT a continent. It is part of North America. The 17 people that upvoted your comment clearly don't know geography.
Load More Replies...Central America is a political designation, rather than a geographical one. I never heard about Central America until I moved to the United States.
Load More Replies...Nothing about the continent of Australia/Oceania? Antarctic for a bonus question perhaps 😁
There are no countries in Antarctica, but you're right about Oceania.
Load More Replies...I love the comments saying it was too easy but that they still got two or three of them wrong. I can just about see people being confused by the islands, given that many of them are by some definitions not physically part of a continent, particularly the Maldives and the Seychelles, it's more a cultural thing than physical and is quite clear which 'belongs' to which continent if you've ever been there.
Yes the two island nations were trickier since they're both in the Indian Ocean. But Seychelles is so culturally linked to Africa that I guessed it right. And Maldives are very much South Asian. I've never been to either one, but I have general knowledge about them.
Load More Replies...Panama was an easy one to get wrong (I did) - tbf, it straddles both north and south. TIL Maldives is actually Asian... 23/25
I can understand why Australia wasn't included in the quiz since they would have to add a "Does not exist" option
I love geography and maps and orienteering. I’m American. Don’t encourage the false stereotypes. 25/25 btw.
Load More Replies...Bolivia got me. I got it mixed up with Bulgaria. I almost got it all right.
Islands are definitely the trickiest bits. It seems that everything that's not part of the main South American chunk, from Colombia down, is considered North America. I was certainly brought up to consider Belize, Honduras, Nicaragua etc as Central.
"Saudi Arabia, which borders Egypt, is in North Africa." Umm, no, the entire Arabian Peninsula is considered to be a part of West Asia (what used to be called "the Middle East"). And, Egypt doesn't have a land border with Saudi Arabia -- the bottom end of Israel gets in the way.
