1:05 It's not the Brazilian rainforests that stop you walking the length of the Americas.

I grew up in Soviet Union and we learned that there are 6 continents but also 6 parts of the world. If we put the Americas together, we separated Europe and Asia.

[@quidam_surprise]

[@adne4336]

[@quidam_surprise]

@@adne4336 Well, it would make a lot more sense to treat America as a single _verdensdel_ ... ...And given that you guys include Eurasia in the _"kontinenter"_ category and not Eurafrasia (despite the fact that Africa is connected to Eurasia as much as the Americas are binded together), I assume that you're basing yourselves on physical geography, so it would be a little bit more logical if you followed the model that Grey showed at the last second, i.e. Africa N. America S. America Antarctica Australia Eurasia And in regards to the _"verdensdel"_ category, change "Australia" for "Oceania". That's pretty much how we do it in France except they don't tell you in class, I had to find out about that on my own whilst checking a dictionary.

[@cameronballard155]

You could extend this problem to oceans. 4: The standard answer. Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, and Arctic. 5: The water around Antarctica is sometimes regarded as a separate Southern Ocean. 3: Some people ignore the Arctic as its own ocean, as it's so small, and instead consider it part of the Atlantic. 1: Since all of the oceans interact and mix with each other anyway, why think of them as separate entities? All the world's oceanic waters together are collectively called the World Ocean--I know, real clever.

I personally would go with either one or three. The reality is that there is only one ocean. The so called World Ocean.

The reason that I heard that Europe and Asia are different continents is they are separated by a mountain range. This is also unhelpful, if that were true you could make boundaries on the Rocky Mountains, Himalayas, Andes, and many more.

[@man4437]

The Urals are more of a practical boundary as they do effectively split Russia into an Asian and European half. I'm not sure if there really is that much difference between Perm and Yekaterinburg, but the Eastern half is mostly part of Russia because of the Empire's conquests and from my understanding is historically and culturally fairly split up from the West, if only because it's fairly inhospitable to major settlements. The Western part is where most of what we consider to be Russia... happened. It's certainly not the worst line I could think of
