You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

Pangaea doesn't start with an A. Nor do Gondwana or Laurasia or quite a few past continents!

Also, while looking for bs attempts to reject the premise of the topic, I stumbled upon this bit from a wiki article on Zealandia:

In 2017, a team of eleven geologists from New Zealand, New Caledonia and Australia concluded that Zealandia fulfills all the requirements to be considered a drowned continent, rather than a microcontinent or continental fragment.[4] This was widely covered by news media.


Aka, just this year, people are thinking maybe we can have some nonvowel continents (although it still would end in 'a')

Neither is America 1 and America 2, or however you are differentiating between the upper and lower Americas, but here we are.

They're gonna need to change the name to Azealandia before I can take them seriously.

America, North and America, South

alternatively, just call the whole thing America! No need to separate them!

Pretty sure most people in Europe call their continent "Europa"

English: Europe
French: Europe
Italian: Europa
German: Europa
Spanish: Europa
Russian: Европа
Ukranian: Європа
Danish: Europa
Polish: Europa

Huh, I guess you're right. I only know English and French, so I was thinking "no way" but seems like basically everyone else does (including Germany and Italy, and I don't expect those two to agree).

Oceania. Additionally North and South America are divided by water (Panama canal), are on different tectonic plates, and have cultural differences. They're different continents guys.

Of course, Europe and Asia should really be one continent.
