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. When we put Europe and Asia together as in Eurasia, we separated the Americas into north and south. Either way, the number 6 remained constant.

In my opinion, you have to disregard the little gaps because most people consider close islands to be part of continents. Therefore, through a chain of islands, Afro-Eurasia (the actual term for those three) also contains Australia. Also, you disregard the gap between Russia and North America, meaning you have 2 continents: Antarctica and Amerieurasiacastralia.

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

Update on Among Us Triggered Video: The script is ready to go and we were planning on filming with Carl and Connor tonight. Unfortunately, someone in Carl's family may have been exposed to Covid yesterday, so now there's a chance that Carl has it as well. We're gonna wait a couple weeks to film to be safe, which means this video will come out in December instead of this Saturday. I apologize for the delay, but it'll be worth it!

0:50 for those of you that don’t know That was a 1984 joke on a book by George Orwell in which there are three countries all of whom are totalitariastic and and war The joke was that at the start of the book Eastasia and Oceania (the huge country) were at war with Eurasia and every record in the world states that this is how it’s always been, but then halfway through the book Oceania and Eurasia are at war with Eastasia and every record in the world is modified to say that this was the way it had always been. It’s a really sad book and it opened my eyes to how vile governments could be.

Here in Brazil is teached that are 8 continents: 1. North America 2. Central America 3. South America 4. Africa 5. Europe 6. Asia 7. Antarctica 8.

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. But, I can agree on pointing out the various parts of it as the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans. Really those three are just the _"we have to navigate around some big-ass island to keep going"_ parts.
