pan-American
Spanning two continents
Pan-American describes things relating to or involving all the countries of North, Central, and South America.
The term emphasizes unity or cooperation across the entire Western Hemisphere, as in the Pan-American Highway connecting Alaska to Argentina, or the Pan-American Games, a multi-sport event for athletes from the Americas.
Pan-American solidarity has been a diplomatic theme since the 19th century, with various treaties and organizations promoting continental cooperation.
