Hello, friends.

Being here, reading some posts, comments and chat conversations, I have realized that not so many people have clear that "America" is a continent and not a country. So, I decided to write about it. Let's begin.

Venezuela is my homeland. Do know where it is? Yes. It is in AMERICA. How come? Yes, in South America. But, it is not only USA the american country? Well, AMERICA is divided into three sections:

-North America : Canada, The United states of America and Mexico.

-Central America: Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Dominican Republic ( Spanish is spoken in all of the central countries except Belize).

(Caribbean Islands)

-South America: Argentina, Bolivia , Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guyana, Guyana, Peru, Paraguay, Uruguay and the best country ever: Venezuela. Spanish is spoken in all of the countries except Brazil ( Portuguese)  French Guyana ( French) and Guyana ( British English). Guyana used to be Venezuelan territory, actually, there is still a dispute about it. Let's see what happens. 

So, I am American... Can you believe it? Yes, I am American without being born in the US. Why? Because I live IN the continent. That makes me American, too. 

I hope you like this information, mates. 

Let's keep in touch. 

Greetings...

  • Hi Oriani! I am Brazilian.

    Good idea and nice explanation!

  • Great post! Actually, there are a few different ways to define the continents. Many people define the continents as 7 separate regions, with North and South America as two separate ones. (This is how we learned it in geography class in Canada.) However, if you scroll down this page, you will see that there are numerous other models based on 4, 5, and 6.

  • I knew that America is a continent. But, the name of your country was new for me and I googled it once.......but now it's more clear to me. Very informative blog, thank you very much for sharing!

    Yeah, now I come to know that you are an American. :)
