Most of them are tiny island nations, everything south of Mexico is generally considered "Central America" by everyone else and everybody ignores Greenland (which is technically still kinda part of Denmark).
Comparing the 41(!) countries of North America[0] with the 58 countries of Europe[1] is really comparing apples and oranges.

"Central" America is part of North America; the dividing line is between Panama and Colombia. Claiming that Central America isn't really North America is like claiming that the Middle East isn't really Asia. It's a geographically-ignorant statement.
