    New York is not part of America? The fuck?

      Technically it is not. The city of New York encompasses 3 Islands (Including Long Island, the largest island in America) and only a small peninsula that is actually on the Mainland proper. The result is that about 90% of New York City is not on the American mainland/continent.

        More than 16% of America is not part of the contiguous land mass. It doesn’t make it any less part of america.
