I'd be interested to hear your thoughts behind *why* exactly these continents are better. To be fair, both this and the standard continent layout are arbitrary as each other, and teckhnikually *puts on pretentious face* the proper one is whatever geologists use.
Oh, i think the current seven/six-continent model is perfectly serviceable, i just thought saying there are two continents would rile people up — it's the logical conclusion of the arguments about "what about Eurasia‽" and "but in South America they say America is one continent!!"
Interesting take on the issue of continents - though I'd fight you on the placement of Antarctica >:3
Good article about the continents, but the moment you make concessions based on social/political quirks is the moment we're back to 37 continents.

I think it would be better to call the two "supercontinents", in the same way that India and Europe are "subcontinents"
ALSO geologists can suck it, "Nazca" is not a continent
