The above photo is a photo of a globe. That is our world. The world is made up of 7 Continents. What is a continent? A continent is one of Earth's seven main divisions of land. The 7 continents are: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Australia, Europe and Antarctica. The USA is in North America and Canada is another country that is part of that as well. The USA and Canada are in Noth America. The USA stands for the United States of America, and this is what is looks like:
