A large landmass usually referred to as the mainland. A continent is a large group of more then 30 sims, placed in direct contact one to another. The geographical features continue from one sim to another, forming a multisim structure. The transportation ways (roads, railways, waterways) also expand from one sim to another, to create a continental network. Sometimes, continents are linked together with little channels of protected waterways.

Owner status

The largest continents are mainland (that means they are Linden-owned). However, a lot of smaller continents are private-owned, usually by a single estate.

List of continents

There are many lists, created in various periods of time. Majority of the maps show only the mainland continents, while some other autors include more or less developed private continents. Since Second Life is a dinamic world, the number of continents and the continent structures will change from time to time. The most complete list was created in August 2013 and describes 24 existing continents and a 25th, deleted.
