From Americo Vespucci, a [Florentine], who pretended to have first discovered the western continent.

America is one of the great continents, first discovered by [Christopher Colombus] in August 1st, 1942. It extends from the eightieth degree of north, to the fifty-fourth degree of south latitude; and from the thirty-fifth to the one hundred and fifty-sixth degree of longtitude west from Greenwich, being about nine thousand miles in length. Its breadth at Darien is narrowed to about [forty-five] miles, but at the northern extremity is nearly four thousand miles.

America is more than a physical [unity], it is a whole of societies and spaces that share a common history. This history commences in 1492, when by the hands of Europe, America enters the history of the rest of the world. Europe "discovered" what, to her, was a "new world" and colonized it.

For diverse reasons America, can be divided into:

* North, Central and South America: Physical Reason. (They are subcontinents, not continents).

* Political and Cultural: Anglo-America and Latin America.
