If we're talking about tectonic plates, then:

  • Europe is part of Eurasia
  • Arabian peninsula, India, and far east Russia aren't part of it, but we'd probably include them as subcontintents

We'd end up with the following continents:

  • N. America (technically includes far east Russia) w/ Caribbean subcontinent
  • S. America
  • Eurasia w/ Indian and Arabian subcontintents
  • Africa w/ Somali subcontinent
  • Australia
  • Antarctica

Image.

Honestly, that would be a much more satisfactory definition than the current one, which seems to be "large landmass bigger than Greenland with logical separations when they're too big." What I really don't understand is when people say Europe and Asia are separate, but N. America and S. America are combined, that's logically inconsistent.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
