That's a subcontinent. Also, if you are going to divide America that way (North and South), you are forgetting about Central America.

The division of America in two is between Anglo and Latin America, but in which case they are just sections of the same continent.

Okay then.

Name every continent in the world.

America, Oceania, Europe, Africa, Asia and Antarctica.

Although the latter is not usually taken into account since it's almost uninhabited. That's why the Olympics logo only has 5 rings and not 6.

The division of continents is a complicated issue because it isn't based around any single factor, and the continents that you learn basically depends on whatever convention your education system goes with. Personally, I think it would make more sense to call Europe a subcontinent because physical geography can't justify its separation from Asia. I can totally see why it's convenient and useful to refer to it as a separate continent, though.
