American continent
The American continent comprises two large landmasses: North America and South America, connected by Central America. North America includes countries like the United States, Canada, and Mexico, characterized by diverse environments from icy Arctic regions to tropical forests. South America features countries such as Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia, known for rainforests like the Amazon and mountainous regions like the Andes. The continents are rich in cultural diversity, history, and natural resources, and are separated by the narrow Isthmus of Panama, which bridges Central America. Together, they form a vast area of varied geography, climates, and civilizations.
