About Oceania
Oceania is the smallest continent by land area and population, scattered across the vast Pacific Ocean. It combines the continental landmass of Australia with the islands of New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and thousands of smaller islands grouped into Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia — including some of the world’s smallest and most remote nations, such as Tuvalu and Nauru.
Despite its size, Oceania’s diversity is striking: Papua New Guinea alone is home to over 800 languages, more than any other country. Ancient indigenous cultures — Aboriginal Australians, Māori, and the seafaring peoples of the Pacific — coexist with modern economies, coral atolls with snow-capped peaks, and the Great Barrier Reef, the largest living structure on Earth.
