how many continents are there in the world?

There are generally considered to be seven continents in the world, according to most common standards. These continents are:

  • Asia
  • Africa
  • North America
  • South America
  • Antarctica
  • Europe
  • Australia (sometimes referred to as Oceania)

This seven-continent model is widely taught and accepted internationally, although some models count fewer continents (such as six or even four), based on different criteria like landmass connections or cultural perspectives. However, the most standard answer remains seven continents.

If more detail or alternative models are desired, I can provide those as well.
