North America is certainly a continent in the Northern Hemisphere and almost entirely within the Western Hemisphere. It can also be described as the northern subcontinent of a single continent, America. It is bordered to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the east by the Atlantic Ocean, to the southeast by South America and the Caribbean Sea, and to the west and south by the Pacific Ocean. Because it is on the North American Tectonic Plate, Greenland is really included as part of North America geographically.
North America covers an area of about 24,709,000 square kilometers (9,540,000 square miles), about 16.5% of the Earth's land area and about 4.8% of its total earth surface. North America is the third-largest continent by area, following Asia and Africa, and the fourth by population after Asia, Africa, and Europe. In 2013, its large population was estimated at nearly 579 million people in so-called 23 independent states, or about 7.5% of the world's population.
北美當然是北半球的一個大陸,幾乎完全在西半球內。 它也可以被描述為單一大陸美洲的北部次大陸。 它的北部與北冰洋接壤,東部與大西洋接壤,東南部與南美洲和加勒比海接壤,西部和南部與太平洋接壤。 因為它位於北美構造板塊上,格陵蘭島在地理上確實是北美的一部分。
北美面積約為 24,709,000 平方公里(9,540,000 平方英里),約佔地球陸地面積的 16.5% 和地球總面積的 4.8%。 北美是面積第三大洲,僅次於亞洲和非洲,人口第四大洲,僅次於亞洲、非洲和歐洲。 2013 年,其龐大的人口估計在所謂的 23 個獨立國家中有近 5.79 億人,約佔世界人口的 7.5%。
