Oceania (sometimes Oceanica) is a geographical, often geopolitical, region consisting of numerous lands—mostly islands in the Pacific Ocean and vicinity. The term "Oceania" was coined in 1831 by French explorer Dumont d'Urville. The term is used today in many languages to define one of the continents and is one of eight terrestrial ecozones.

The boundaries of Oceania are defined in a number of ways. Most definitions recognize parts of Australasia such as Australia, New Zealand, and New Guinea, and all or part of the Malay Archipelago as being parts of Oceania. Ethnologically, the islands that are included in Oceania are divided into the subregions of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia.

is australia a country or a continent? what about oceania?
Q. me and my house mates are having a huge discussion on this theme. some websites, including Wikipedia, give different definitions according to the language it was written in. we all come from different countries and were taught different in school. so basically, some know Australia(just the big mass part) is a continent in its own and the only country to occupy one entirely, others say its just a country in the continent of Australia. did anyone out there actually do geographic studies and can sort this whole thing out?
