240 million years ago there was one giant mega-continent called Pangaea. Things were simpler then, you could walk from South Africa to Greenland and Switzerland had tropical beaches. But then Pangea broke up and things are complicated. Today we have 7 continents or 5 or if you're really cool 4, it mostly depends on what language you speak and what century it is. Regardless of how many there are, they all have names. But what is an Africa? What does Asia mean? And is Australia a filthy name thief? Well, Let's Find Out.
