Of course the europe-asia border is wrong, but the south america -north america border is wrong as well. It should be where Panama is.

I see a lot of US Americans think that north America only has 3 countries. That's false.

Trump's delusions about Greenland seem to be contagious to whoever color-coded this map.

Three countries is what I was taught in school in the 80s and 90s. And that the Americas are 3 continents; North, Central, and South America.

What was the reasoning back then for singling out central America?
