Countries in each continent: frequently asked questions

How many countries are in each continent?

In the Travle list: Africa 50, Asia 46, Europe 39, North America 18, South America 13, Oceania 7, 173 in total.

Which continent has the fewest countries?

Oceania, with 7 entries in the game. Antarctica has no countries and is not part of Travle.

Why are there six continents here and not seven?

Antarctica has no countries, so the list uses the six inhabited continents. North and South America are counted separately, as in Natural Earth's classification.

Where does the continent of each country come from?

From Natural Earth (public domain), the same source as the map used on Travle's country pages.

Sources: country list from the Travle game; capitals, continents and ISO codes from Natural Earth 1:110m (public domain); population and surface area from the World Bank World Development Indicators (data updated 2026-10-08); checked 2026-10-20. The list includes some territories, so it is not a list of sovereign states only.
