Are you sure of that?? I think that America is only one big continent, divided in North America, South America and Central America... Now I'm not sure, but I think it's that way...
"A continent is one of several major land masses on the earth. There is no standard definition for the number of continents but you'll commonly find that the numbers six or seven are used. By most standards, there are a maximum of seven continents - Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America. Most students in the U.S. are taught that there are seven continents."
