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.
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
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oceania
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
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.
Hahaha that’s hilarious you heard it often but never took them seriously
