North America is the third largest continent in terms of size, after Asia and Africa. It covers approximately 16.5% of the Earth's land area.
The three continents with the most water per capita are South America, North America, and Asia. These continents have a higher availability of freshwater resources compared to other regions.
Greenland appears much wider than it actually is when compared to other continents, due to map distortion caused by the Mercator projection. Greenland is often depicted as being larger in size when compared to other continents like Africa or South America.

The Americas and remote islands like New Zealand and Australia were some of the last continents to be inhabited by early man. These places were more isolated and required longer sea voyages to reach, which may have contributed to the delayed settlement compared to other regions.
North America is one of the continents. South America is the other continent.
