Greetings from Europe. So, Xymphony, since you're from Turkey, are you from the European or the Asian part? Not that it makes any difference, just being curious. We are on a thread about continents after all.

^ There seems to be some dispute - that continent can go by the names Australia, Oceania or Australasia.  It just depends on what book you read.

Geographically, i am from Asia(Turkey). Only Istanbul's second-half and some small cities are located in the Europian continent. I don't live there ;)

Oceania or Australasia, but I'm pretty sure not Australia   

Usually goes under the name of Oceania (which includes the smaller South Pacific nations, Australia and New Zealand and their respective territories.

Australasia generally refers to Australia and New Zealand only.(correct me if I am wrong here.)

..and Australia well... is Australia.

I as a New Zealander prefer not to be lumped under Australia - thank you very much!!

Sorry about that, but we were taught it to be "Australia" during our education process. I  know that it is (also) named Oceania, but i didn't think this (Australia) was gonna be wrong. I have no chance to edit the poll technically i think...
