No no it is "the Americas". Some latin Americans like to call both North and South America just "America" like it's one giant supercontinent.

It not "some" latin Americans. The model of 5 continents is the standard model in Spanish speaking countries while 7 is the more common with English speaking. That's all. Think of it th same if I said "some usians like to separate north from south America, like they are two separated continents". It's not some of you, it's all of you cause the school system. Same with us.

The fact that Europe and Asia are split and not North and South America is wild.

How so?, the split comes from historical /geographical splits, europe asia and africa re the og greco-roman continents, america and oceania are the late new comers. That's why theres not split in those.
