“Smallest Continent” is like saying “Most Giant Midget.” It means nothing. That’s also only if you use the 7 continent model. Which is taught in Mostly English Speaking parts of the world as well as SE Asia and China. There’s two 6 continent models, the combined Eurasia Model which is taught in Russia, Eastern Europe and the Balkan States. Then There’s the combined Americas model Taught in Greece, many Romance language countries and Latin America. Then There’s The 5 Continent model which is Physiographic Regions, so physically distinct regions independent of Political boundaries and the 4 continent model which is divided by continuous land mass, so Afro-Eurasia, Combined Americas, Australia and Antarctica. The 6 model system is represented in the rings of the Olympic flag that depicts the 5 inhabited continents of the combined America Model but excludes Antarctica because Penguins are shit at Archery.

No, it’s actually just geography.
