South America occupies the major southern portion of the landmass generally referred to as the ''New World'', the Western Hemisphere, the Americas, or simply America (which is sometimes considered a single continent and South America a subcontinent). It is south and east of the Colombia-Panama border according to most authorities or, according to a few, the [[Panama Canal]] which transects the Isthmus of [[Panama]]. Almost all of mainland South America sits on the South American Plate.
