Yeah, but there's a limit to how many poll options you can have (six); hence, I had to drop Antarctica and put North/South America, instead of two separate options.

I didn't vote in the poll. I live on the North Island of New Zealand. You could say we were part of Oceania if you believe that to be a continent (as some people seem to) but we're not part of Australia in any way shape or form.

Monkeypimp,

"we were part of Oceania if you believe that to be a continent"
I believe that since everything needs to be categorized :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
Oceania would be the best way to categorize the South Pacific region (Australia, New Zealand, and all the other island and states over there).
Since you wouldn´t call yourself an Asian - I assume - Oceania makes the most sense.
Regarding Antartica: it doesn´t have any permanent settlements. There are a view scientific stations over there. Very unlikely that one of the scientist is playing nation states.
Well: if there is one he/she can of course tell here at the forum.

Well I've always said that I'm not on a continent. If you do it by tectonic plates, New Zealand is on 2 anyhow so we're just a group of islands.

errr no we are part of Oceania, its whether or not people think its a continent. Some get taught it is, some don't. In New Zealand, they don't teach that.

What always confused me is the way many people insist on acknowledging only 5 continents (normally lumping north and south america together and ignoring antartica)

Even today, the olympic symbol of 5 interlocking circles is supposed to represent the 5 continents...
BelFierste
22-06-2004, 14:36
I heard it is also meant to represent the five points of venuses trail across the sky which takes 4 years to be complete - hence the olympics being every four years.

Dragons Bay,

so far you are. However they are six people claiming coming from Asia. Thus far only you have made a post.
I have been to Hongkong once. Very big city and very crowded. Kowloon is the area with the highest population per km² in the world.
I think East, Sout-east and south Asia and especially China are remaining the regions of the world with the highest economic growth rates.
China is going to play a leading role in Asia and in the world of the 21rst century. 8) 8)
