It sounds like a technicality

2019-07-16 17:44:53 UTC  

Tbh

2019-07-16 17:44:56 UTC  

Ahh yes a subcontinent

2019-07-16 17:44:56 UTC  

continents are loosely defined anyway

2019-07-16 17:45:01 UTC  

Australia isnt a continent and is

2019-07-16 17:45:01 UTC  

Here we call those states

2019-07-16 17:45:04 UTC  

what defines a continent?

2019-07-16 17:45:07 UTC  

India's a Subcontinent I believe

2019-07-16 17:45:30 UTC  

and literally Britain conquered it before Australia

2019-07-16 17:45:45 UTC  

Not all of it ;)

2019-07-16 17:46:14 UTC  

there are 14 countries in the Oceania continent in which Australia exists

2019-07-16 17:46:51 UTC  

Australia is the continent

2019-07-16 17:46:58 UTC  

Oceania is a region

2019-07-16 17:47:10 UTC  

Oceania is a continent and Australia is a continent in the continent of Oceania

2019-07-16 17:47:18 UTC  

Just like how Britian isn't part of the Eurasian continent

2019-07-16 17:47:27 UTC  

It's an island associated with it

2019-07-16 17:47:35 UTC  

just like how europe and asia are different continents

2019-07-16 17:47:35 UTC  

becuse 2 defnitinz of continent cuz we smurt

2019-07-16 17:47:36 UTC

2019-07-16 17:47:48 UTC

@Spooky Melonsame thing since they are physically connected

2019-07-16 17:48:04 UTC  

>that Australian border

2019-07-16 17:48:29 UTC  

But that's an out dated map of it

2019-07-16 17:49:18 UTC  

europe and asia are 2 different continents by region but 1 continent geologically

2019-07-16 17:49:22 UTC  

Honestly the term continent has such wierd terms and meaning behind it

2019-07-16 17:49:58 UTC  

Afro-eurasia is technically the more accurate Continental term

2019-07-16 17:50:33 UTC  

4 continents. Australia , afro-eurasia , Antarctica , America

2019-07-16 17:50:44 UTC  

..............

2019-07-16 17:50:58 UTC  

That's the more modern way

2019-07-16 17:51:06 UTC  

no

2019-07-16 17:51:18 UTC  

literally just no

2019-07-16 17:51:46 UTC  

The more modern way is: White Countries and Non-White Countries, divided into two continents

2019-07-16 17:51:48 UTC  

checkmate

2019-07-16 17:52:19 UTC  

so it turns out there are multiple ways of defining the continents

2019-07-16 17:52:22 UTC  

fuckin hell

2019-07-16 17:52:41 UTC  

this is what happens when you dont use the metric system

2019-07-16 17:52:47 UTC  

Literally just said that

2019-07-16 17:54:27 UTC  

Geologically its more accurate to say NA SA Eurasia Africa Australia Antarctica (Zelandia)

2019-07-16 17:54:55 UTC  

basically: six continents v2

2019-07-16 17:55:14 UTC  

the distinction between europe and asia is thought to be largely political in origin
