so from what google is giving me, this is what i’ve gathered and some of it is contradictory hence why im posting here. i need this to be explained to me like i’m a five year old or i’ll never understand.
– oceania is a continent
– australia is a continent
– oceania is also australia
– but oceania isn’t a continent anymore it’s an area of the earth
– but just kidding australia is a continent inside of the continent known as oceania
W H A T ?

The definition for ‘continent’ is a bit vague and this is an edge case that has substantial support by both sides. Depending on who you ask, Australia is a continent within the region of Oceania, or Oceania is a continent with Australia being one of the landmasses within.
