Which is the smallest continent and the largest island of the World?
The continent of Australia is the world’s smallest continent at approximately 3 million square miles in area (7.8 million km2). At 840,000 square miles (2,175,590 km2), Greenland is the world’s largest island. Although Australia also meets the definition of an island (a piece of land surrounded by water), it is large enough to be considered its own continent.
