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 denote a continent comprising Australia and approximate Pacific islands, 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 part of Maritime Southeast Asia as being parts of Oceania. Ethnologically, the islands that are included in Oceania are divided into the subregions of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia.

Why are Australia, Oceania, and Antarctica in the same culture zone according to some maps?
Q. What do these places have in common (I can understand Australia and Oceania being in the same zone, but Antarctica..)?
Asked by cc - Fri Oct 19 21:32:44 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. All depends on what criteria the cartographer used. It seems odd that it would be culturally homogeneous, so thats the only thing I can think of.

A. Originally coined by the French explorer Dumont d'Urville in 1831, Oceania has been traditionally divided into Micronesia, Melanesia, Polynesia, and Australasia. As with any region, however, interpretations vary; increasingly, geographers and scientists divide Oceania into Near Oceania and Remote Oceania.
