Holy shit I had to google that. My confusion was caused by the fact in Portuguese (at least in Brazil) this same continent is called Oceania. I just discovered a new Continent.
Edit: Seems only the English world use Australia as continent
The land mass is pretty large on its own giving it continent status, but the who of it sits on a single continental plate if my memory serves me right.
Have you also been forgetting to covert votes to metric before you send them?
For reference:
1 upvote = 2.2 nah yeahs
1 downvote = 2.2 yeah nahs
This conversion has my support.
For the uninitiated:
Me realizing I've actually been upvoting Australians this whole time
This is so incredibly stupid but I love it
Take my angry Australian upvote 😝 (actually am upvoting because currently in North America)
funny how Australia originated as a continent where criminals were banished to.
Hundreds of years later everything has changed and everyone in the world adores Australians.
Why everyone calls Australia a continent? Not trying to be a dick, I actually wants to understand, I see this frequently.
Because it’s both a continent and a country.

Ahh... I've heard of Oceania as a region, I didn't realize it could refer to a continent!
When I was 9 years old I learned in elementary school that Australia is both a continent and a country.
And you are smart, I'm proud of you

Hahaha that’s hilarious you heard it often but never took them seriously
Can't we just upvote and downvote simultaneously? So that we won't upset anyone?
I gave you 50 upvotes and downvotes to show support for this idea.
I updownvoted you for that.
So the drop bears actually float up?

I'm sorry Australia! Please come back. We can be AmerAustralia, together, watching while the other sleeps, as was meant to be.
Oh, so that's why! Here I thought y'all were shufflin
