Fun Facts About Continents
Seven Stops on a World Tour
Imagine planning a trip around Earth. You would cross oceans and visit places with very different landscapes, animals, and climates. Earth has seven continents: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Antarctica. North America includes the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Its landscapes range from the Grand Canyon’s deep, colorful rock walls to the cold Arctic north, where polar bears live. South America is home to the Amazon rainforest, a vast, lively forest, and the Andes, a long mountain range. It also has jaguars and bright-feathered parrots living in parts of it. Europe is known for historic cities and landmarks. The Eiffel Tower stands in Paris, France. Many languages are spoken across Europe, including French, Spanish, and German. Asia is the largest continent by area. It includes Mount Everest, Earth’s highest mountain above sea level, and forests where giant pandas live. Africa has wide grasslands where elephants, lions, and giraffes can be found. It is also home to the Sahara, one of the world’s largest hot deserts. Australia is both a continent and a country. Kangaroos and koalas are native to Australia, and the Great Barrier Reef lies off its northeastern coast. Antarctica is the coldest continent. Ice covers most of it, and penguins live there. Scientists visit to study the environment, but no one lives there permanently. A world tour would reveal that every continent has its own remarkable features.
