What does the principle of avoiding the same continent mean?

Teams from the same continent avoid meeting in the same group or prematurely.

In the world's three major football matches, especially the World Cup, the organizers will try their best to divide teams from the same continent into different groups, so that each group can have teams from all continents in a balanced way. Generally, all continents are in the same grade, and the lottery will be drawn equally in each group. Only in this way can we embody the principle of avoiding the same continent and make the game more open, fair and just.
