All countries with only the exception of USA, always taught and still teaching that there's a North America, a Central America and a South America.
Why USA is making it's own geographic deals, even in its maps and books?
Why? Is it wrong? Tell me what you think.

Yes, and WHY USA is the only one teaching that North America is its own Continent? Doesn't make any sense.
The American Continent is made out of the: North, Central and South Americas...

Lo que pasa es que es tan grande el ego de los gobernantes , que ocupan todo el resto del continente y no ven más de lo que quieren ver.
Amo al pueblo norteamericano pero tendrían que informarlos más.

Proud American and Native Texas here ... Who ever told you that the US is basically not teaching about Centeral America is filling you mind with major BS. The cultures that make up Centeral America are not only taught about, but have had a major historical impact in making up the currentculture of the US ... especally in the southern half of the country. If nothing else, just get out a map and take a look at the names of the cities and major geographical landmarks.

Because we're taught that, geographically, North America and Central America are one continent. South America is divided by the Panama canal.
Politically and socially, there are three disticnt continents.

Central America is a sociological and anthropological designation an association of people and cultures of sorts - geography delineates a North American and South American continent

nicely, different than for the U.S. being too liable to try this different than in some banana republics (so called using fact the banana companies - Dole, and so on. - desirous to run issues their way, no longer interior the U.S. way) and leaving aside that Britain, Spain, and Portugal could have been aggravated, you may desire to take a extreme look the rebellions in those countries which you're concentrated on - the voters fought for his or her independence from others and could have from us. and you're able to desire to be conscious that we did a reasonably undesirable activity interior the countries we did invade - Woodrow Wilson had a reasonably racist innovations-set as he regarded down his nostril and chosen invasion places.

All my teachers taught me that there is a Central America.
It might just be your school. Not all of America.
