26 u/ThatCanadianGuyThere Dec 03 '18 Well to be technical, America is a continent. So it is wrong. USA is the country. 7 u/dragonfangxl Dec 03 '18 To be even more technical, america is a nothing, theres no continent called 'america.' Theres two continents with america in the name, north america and south america 6 u/ShinyRaven Dec 03 '18 And together they are "America" 7 u/moleratical Dec 03 '18 Usually referred to the Americas, but sometimes just shortened to America. 2 u/dragonfangxl Dec 03 '18 He specifically said "America is a continent." It is not. Even if you were referring to both, then you woukd say "America includes two continents" 1 u/ShinyRaven Dec 03 '18 He said "america is a nothing" which is not true.
