Asia/Pacific should be split up more. One vote category that covers 60% of the world's population and 30% of Earth's land area is not very specific. Australia

Australia has 22 million people and Canada has 35 million, while Asia (Oceania not included) has 3,900 million, yet the former two get their own country-specific categories.
- stelund 15y agoChina is split out, which is 30% of population in of Asia.
- timknauf 15y agoAgreed. As a New Zealander I guess I would technically fall into 'Asia/Pacific', but I can't bring myself to choose that because NZ has next to nothing in common with any Asian nation. Consider providing the regional option of 'Australasia' or, better yet, 'Oceania' instead of just the single-country 'Australia'.
- eftpotrm 15y agoWhile that's not unreasonable, it's also IMHO not unreasonable for an English-language site to offer more specific categories for English-speaking regions than non-English speaking regions.
