While we're doing scientifically-unsound polls, might as well do this one too!

[Poll #1636721]

Only separated out the major/predominantly English-speaking nations because there are probably way more of even one of those than any of the others combined.

This isn't about politics, it's about geographical, physical location. You don't have to identify as an American to be from the US! Chill!

Central America is usually used to mean a region including the Caribbean islands, Mexico, and the countries on the isthmus of Panama. (In the US anyway.) I recently got maps for the tables at my library and the one for North America went all the way down to Panama, but I still had to get another map to get the islands of the Caribbean!

It's kind of fascinating that different languages teach a different number of continents, actually. I expect the only way you could avoid banging toes is to divide the world by longitude lines and the equator.
