What makes Oceania unusual is probably the fact that it is not a standard continent at all. It is not a solid landmass, and in that sense is not truly a continent. Oceania comprises a huge region of the Pacific encompassing just one continent - Australia - many large islands such as New Zealand and Papua New Guinea and many smaller islands and territories of French Polynesia, Micronesia and Melanesia.
