fauzman said: Its not really the same. Australia is the continent and the country. AUSTRALASIA or OCEANIA is the region including Aus, NZ and the pacific islands. I understand from the comments that Australia was meant to include NZ, but its not the same. Also, I am originally from a pacific island (Fiji) so that was also not included. |
I'm pretty sure we were actually taught this in Elementary School. xD It was even in our text books that Australia could also be called Australia & Oceania.
