Answer and explanation
Correct Answer: B: Africa
Explanation: The correct answer is Africa, with 54 recognized countries. Africa has a long and complex history, with many countries gaining independence from colonial powers in the 20th century. Options like Asia and Europe are incorrect because they have fewer countries, with 49 and 50 countries respectively. Africa is also home to the Nile River, the world's longest river, and the Sahara Desert, the world's largest hot desert. This topic appears frequently in FPSC, CSS, and NTS general knowledge papers to test knowledge of global geography.
