Continents of the World - CSV

The seven-continent model is a geographical classification that divides Earth's landmass into seven continents. In order of area: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Oceania (Australia). Asia is the largest continent, home to approximately 60% of the world's population. Each continent has unique geographical, cultural, and historical characteristics that shape global diversity. Antarctica is the only continent without a permanent human population.
