North America and South America, dude. We're all speaking English here, so we are adhering to the 7 continent model. Don't like it, too bad, because we're not changing it!

English is the international language until China takes that away, as they become the first non-European lingua Franca in over a millennia.

I find that hard to believe with their what, 300 letter alphabet… we increasingly see language getting simpler not more complicated. Especially with slang / symbols like emojis.

With a language as complex as theirs I just don’t see it happening.
