> Something does not add up for me here. If you say that Australia is a continent, but Oceania a region.. then how is New Zealand classified? Shouldnt it count as a continent too? Why would it have to? Oceania is a region that consists of one continent and a bunch of islands, done, problem solved. There's nothing that says "a region" can only consist of continents or islands, is there?
