england is an island, and part of the Eurasian continental plate. japan is an island and part of the eurasian continental plate. volcanic islands like iceland, hawaii, greenland, etc are also not continents.

North and South American are two separate continental plates, which connected very recently (geologically) and will soon (geologically) disconnect once again.
