[[File:Continental models-Australia.gif|thumb|300px|Animated, color-coded map showing the various continents and regions. [[Continent#Separation of continents|Depending on the convention and model]], some continents may be consolidated or subdivided: for example, [[Eurasia]] is most often subdivided into [[Europe]] and [[Asia]] (red shades), while [[North America|North]] and [[South America]] are sometimes recognized as [[Americas|one American continent]] (green shades).]] 

A '''continent''' is one of several very large [[landmass]]es on [[Earth]]. They are generally identified by [[convention (norm)|convention]] rather than any strict criteria, with up to seven regions commonly regarded as continents—they are (from largest in size to smallest): [[Asia]], [[Africa]], [[North America]], [[South America]], [[Antarctica]], [[Europe]], and [[Australia (continent)|Australia]].<ref name="NatlGeo">{{cite web|url=http://travel.nationalgeographic.com/places/continents/|title=Continents: What is a Continent?|publisher=[[National Geographic (magazine)|National Geographic]]|accessdate=2009-08-22}} "Most people recognize seven continents—Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia, from largest to smallest—although sometimes Europe and Asia are considered a single continent, Eurasia."</ref>

In [[geology]], continents are described by means of [[tectonic plates]]. [[Plate tectonics]] is the  process and study of the movement, collision and division of continents, earlier known as [[continental drift]].
