I'll tell you some real bullshit. Australians are tryin' to claim there are 5 Oceans. "Southern Ocean" my ass. There's only a need for the current 4.

There are four?

"Historically, there are four named oceans: the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, and Arctic. However, most countries now recognize the Southern (Antarctic) as the fifth ocean. The Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian are known as the three major oceans."

3, 4, or 5 depending on who you ask.  I mean technically they are all connected so you could say 1 and just call it the ocean. Dividing it up seems to vary to countries discreation.
