The total landmass on earth is formed of seven continents of various sizes. Some are connected to each other while others are not. All of them have a different number of countries forming them.
The names of the seven continents of the world are: Asia, Africa, Europe, Australia, North America, South America, and Antarctica.
All the continents of the world start and end with the same alphabet if you consider North and South Americas as one continent.
Earth is around 71 per cent water per cent water and 29 per cent land. In fact, billions of years ago, the seven continents of the world were joined together as a single massive landmass called Pangaea. But thanks to plate tectonics, they gradually broke apart and separated. Europe and North America are still moving apart at the rate of 7 cm every year, research says.
