Geography America
America is made up of two distinct continental masses marked with the names of North America and South America, separated and joined together by a long and narrow strip of territory which together with the Antilles islands constitutes Central America.
The entire American continent is bathed in its entire length by the Atlantic Ocean in the east and the Pacific Ocean in the west, in the north by the Arctic Ocean and by branches of the Atlantic Ocean, the largest of which is made up of Hudson Bay.
In the central part, the Atlantic Ocean is very articulated, it includes the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean sea.
