I am not sure what you mean by "coincided". But I can tell you that it is not a continent. There are seven continents and it is not one of them.

The North Pole is not a Continent. The North Pole is located on sheets of ice. The South Pole is located on Antarctica, which is a Continent.

It isn't.
For one, there is no real land at the north pole, just Ice, so It can't even be concidered a land form of any statis.
Second, a single location, being a pinpoint of the world, is no where near large enough for a title of such size.
Third, if it was, it would be part of North America or Aisa, as they are both connected to the Ice. It's not it's own free-standing mass.
I hoep this helps, on any level of the debate.
Where did you here this. Oh wait, maybe it's concidered a continent where dealing with the fictinal world of Santa, in which it would be a free standing aria of land unconnected to other bodies, and large enough to support civilazations and masses of people, making it a true continent.

Perhaps you meant "...South Pole considered...". The South Pole is not a continent, just as the North Pole is not, they are imaginary points that form an imaginary axis around which the Earth rotates. Antarctica is considered a continent because...oh, never mind. That's not what you asked.

There's no solid land mass at the North Pole, just solid ice. So I don't know what you mean by "coincided". Nor is it considered a continent. It's in the Arctic, and that's a sea.

Do you mean considered?......If thats what you mean...it isnt' considered a continent. I think you might have it confused with Antartica, home to the South Pole, which is definetly a continent.
Ask any penguin, they will tell you.
