For all of my life, until 5 minutes ago when I saw a clip of "Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?", I have been sure that there are seven continents:
- Asia
- N America
- S America
- Africa
- Europe
- Antartica
- Oceana or Australasia
But now I'm totally confused. Apparently, Australia is a continent in itself. I'd be happy to accept that but it leaves me wondering what continent New Zealand and the smaller islands are in. Wikipedia isn't helping me at all. Can somebody settle this for me? I'm stereotypically a smart guy among my friends and family but this has stopped me in my tracks...
edit: AUSTRALIA IS A COUNTRY, I KNOW THAT. MY QUESTION IS WHETHER IT IS A CONTINENT OR NOT.
