I was just curious and wanted to know what the Zombie Survival community is made up of. Since there are so many countries, I decided to just group them into contintents. I figured that would give me a good idea.


So the question is, where are you from? North America? South America? Antarctica? Africa? Asia? Europe? Australia?

storm886 just for the record, The continent America is divided into 3 parts. Its NOT just North and South America. There is Central America too.

Incorrect. Central America, is never, and has never been considered a continent. North and South America combined can be considered one continent, however this has not really been the case since the 18th century.

And NO, Central America is not part of North America. I am saying this for 2 reasons. First for you to know. Second because I am from Costa Rica, which is in Central America and its kinda offensive to say Central America is part of North America.
In every scenario where America is split into continents it is only ever North and South America. With "Central America" being the southernmost, isthmian (A narrow strip of land with sea on either side, forming a link between two larger areas of land.) portion of the North American continent, which connects with South America on the southeast. Hence, Central America IS part of North America, and therefore is in no way offensive to say such.

Its totally independent. Well, thanks:)
Central America is independent from North America in the political sense of the word, (although you could argue against that seeing as there has been discussions about the possibility of Puerto Rico becoming the 51st state). However in the geographic sense of the word, it is very much connected to both North and South America (it is an isthmus).

Well, thanks :)


On Topic: I am in Europe, the UK to be precise.

I would like to point out at this point that everybody here is a dumbass.

The continents are taught differently in different regions of the world. And had ANY of you actually bothered to read the continent wikipedia entry, you'd known this.

This includes serveral versions with just 1 America Continent. HOWEVER, The 7 continent version in the opening post is the most used version in the world.

Also, There is also in no way, shape or form a central America continent. This is a thread about continents, not about arbitrary sections of the globe cut up and called any way we want them to be called. So to be offended that your arbitrary section of America isn't an official continent, and as such not listed in the most commonly used continent map of the world is a stupid thing to do, especially if you keep insisting on it and arguing after being corrected. And yes, that does show lack of common sense.

Now everybody stop dicking about. Thank you.

P.S. Discussion is when you talk about something and willing to accept you're wrong when given evidence. If you're not willing to accept you're wrong it's arguing.
P.P.S. Whilst I agree that one shouldn't believe everything on the internet, I also want to point out that Wikipedia has been proven to be more accurate then most encyclopedia.

EUROPE FUCK YEAH!
