0 Most of the Earth's surface is covered by water: about seven tenths is ocean and only about three tenths is land. 1 The great pieces of land are called continents. 2 There are seven: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe and Australia. 3 The great bodies of salt water are the oceans: the Pacific, the Atlantic, the Indian, the Southern and the Arctic. 4 In fact they all join into one world ocean. 5 Asia is the largest continent and Australia the smallest; the Pacific is the largest and deepest ocean, so big that all the land on Earth would fit into it. 7 Europe and Asia are joined by land, and the Ural Mountains are usually taken as the border between them. 8 About seven tenths of the Earth's surface is covered by oceans. 9 There are seven continents: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe and Australia. 10 Asia is the largest continent and has the most people. 12 Antarctica lies around the South Pole, is covered by thick ice and has no towns where people live all year. 13 There are five oceans: the Pacific, the Atlantic, the Indian, the Southern and the Arctic. 14 The Pacific Ocean is the largest and the deepest ocean. 15 The Arctic Ocean is the smallest ocean and lies around the North Pole. 16 All the oceans are joined together, so a ship can sail from one to another. 17 The United States and Canada are in North America, and the United Kingdom is in Europe. 18 The Atlantic Ocean lies between Europe and Africa on one side and North and South America on the other. 19 France, with its capital Paris, is in Europe; China is in Asia. 20 Europe and Asia are joined by land; the Ural Mountains are often taken as the border between them. ← previous Maps, plans and the compassnext → Mountains, rivers and seas, and how the land is shaped↑ back to World This page in Markdown → https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/world/42-continents-and-oceans/
