What's the largest continent?
931762
To be tecchnically accurate the largest Continent (single land mass with a continental shelf) is Eur-asia, since Europe and Aiusa are conjoined  it is only geo-politically accurate to refer to them as separate continents. They are in fact one land mass and therefore the largest continent.

It depends which ocean of course. If you mean the biggest, the Pacific, at its widest between Central America and the Philippines, it's almost halfway round the world, in the region of 10 000 miles.

The first ocean was the Iapetus Ocean or Sea. This was the water mass that surrounded the Rodinia land mass which is believed to be the first continent or super-continent.

Out of the major Oceans, yes the Pacific is the biggest and the Indian Ocean is the smallest but some people have said the Arctic ocean but this isnt one of the major 3 oceans.\nAnd, by the way, that other guys comment about reporting you was unneccessary.

Pangea is a theoretical super-continent that existed millions of years ago and eventually broke up through platetechtonics to form the seven continents. I know old Albert had a few years under his belt, but not that many.

Just like everyone else said, but I am providing sources and statistics.\n\nAs far as land mass goes, Russia is the biggest country in the world, at over 6 million square miles, making almost it twice as big as the second largest, which is Canada at 3.8 million square miles.  The US, interestingly enough, is a close third, with 3.7 million sq mi.  China and Brazil round out the top five.\n\n\nAs everyone knows, China is the most populated, with 1.2 billion people.  Second is India with 1.08 billion, and in third, waaaayy behind the other two, is the US with 295 million.  Indonesia and Brazil round out that top five.

They say, when you don't have a great answer, INVENT ONE!, there are guys here who call you stupid and in their answers rely the ignorance and idiotness of their own fear. America is a whole continent, there is no North America continent, or a South American Continent, There are only 5 Continents, Europe, Africa, Asia, Americas, Antarctica's(Oceania), http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Continents.\nAmerica is the whole continent, even if the name of this country has the name of America, that does not mean we own the whole continent, yes we are arrogant and lazy, and our politic is to not care what the rest of the world says. They say that we call ourselves America because that's whats they call us in Europe, in Europe they call us "Pricks".

Sahara is the desert in Africa, but Antarctica is the largest desert in the world.  It may sound weird, but the lack of percipitation in Antarctica classifies it as a desert.
