When I made the Continents taxonomy I didn’t think it through very well. For example, I made an Oceania continent, which isn’t really real. Also, most of the terms in the taxonomy are countries, which I think is more interesting, but I don’t really surface them anywhere. More on that someday.
One of the struggles I had was how to sort essays from Central America and the Middle East. Did you know the Middle East is on three different continents?
So I simply gave up on cartographically and geographically correct and decided to sort countries the way people do. So now there are two new continents, Central America and West Asia.
Here are what countries I’m considering in those areas:
Central America:
- Belize
- Guatamala
- El Salvador
- Honduras
- Nicaragua
- Costa Rica
- Panama
West Asia
- Iran
- Iraq
- Syria
- Lebanon
- Israel
- Jordan
- Kuwait
- UEA
- Oman
- Yemen
- Saudi Arabia
- Israel
- Palestine
