16. OCEANIA - POLITICAL

17. Political Oceania
Several terms are in use to describe the region comprising
Australia and the nations of the Pacific Ocean. The term
Oceania is usually preferred, and this is the term in use by the
United Nations. The term Pacific Islands generally excludes the
islands of New Zealand, and the continent of Australia. The
indigenous Māori of New Zealand are a Polynesian people.
Historically the region was called Australasia, although this often
meant just Australia, New Zealand and sometimes Papua New
Guinea. The term gives special emphasis to Australia and is
falling out of favour.

classification:
