Europeans in the 16th century divided the world into four continents: Africa, America, Asia, and Europe. Each of the four continents was seen to represent its quadrant of the world—Africa in the south, America in the west, Asia in the east, and Europe in the north. This division fit the Renaissance sensibilities of the time, which also divided the world into four seasons, four classical elements, four cardinal directions, four classical virtues, etc.

rdfs:comment	Bangsa Eropa pada abad ke-16 membagi dunia menjadi empat benua: Afrika, Amerika, Asia dan Eropa. Setiap empat benua tampak mewakili kuadran dunia—Eropa di utara, Asia di timur, Afrika di selatan dan Amerika di barat. Pembagian tersebut timbul pada zaman Renaisans, yang juga membagi dunia menjadi empat musim, empat unsur klasik, empat mata angin, empat kebajikan klasik, dll. (in) قسم الأوروبيون في القرن السادس عشر العالم إلى أربع قارات: إفريقيا وأمريكا وآسيا وأوروبا. وكان يُنظر إلى كل من القارات الأربع على أن كل قارة تمثل ربع العالم - أوروبا في الشمال، وآسيا في الشرق، وأفريقيا في الجنوب، وأمريكا في الغرب. وكان هذا التقسيم يناسب أفكار عصر النهضة في ذلك الوقت فيما يخص الرقم «أربعة»، والتي قسمت العالم أيضاً إلى أربعة مواسم وأربعة عناصر كلاسيكية وأربعة اتجاهات أساسية وأربعة فضائل كلاسيكية وما إلى ذلك. تشير الأجزاء الأربعة من العالم أو أركان العالم الأربعة إلى الأمريكتين («غرباً») وأوروبا («شمالاً») وآسيا («شرقاً») وأفريقيا («جنوباً»)).

Ognuno dei continenti rappresentava uno dei quadranti del mondo e corrispondeva ad un punto cardinale: Europa il nord, l'Asia l'est, l'Africa il sud e l'America l'ovest. Il termine "" si riferisce proprio all'associazione dei quattro punti cardinali ai continenti. Questa divisione dei continenti ben si adattava alla mentalità rinascimentale del tempo, che aveva diviso il mondo nelle quattro stagioni, nei quattro elementi, nei quattro punti cardinali, nelle quattro virtù classiche...
