Oceania describes a continental region that lies between Asia and the Americas, with the Australian continent as the major landmass and consisting of some 10,000 islands in the Pacific. The name Oceania is used because unlike the other continental groupings, it is the ocean and adjacent seas rather than a continent that link the lands together. Oceania is the smallest continent grouping in land area and the second smallest, after Antarctica, in population.

Oceania is traditionally understood as being composed of three regions: Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia. Most definitions also recognize Australasia which includes Australia and New Zealand. New Zealand is also culturally and linguistically part of Polynesia, and is the south-western anchor of the Polynesian Triangle of which Hawaii and Easter Island make up the other points. Other countries in Polynesia include: French Polynesia, Cook Islands, Samoa, and Tuvalu. Nearby Melanesia includes New Caledonia, Solomon Islands, New Guinea, Vanuatu, and Fiji and is culturally and racially distinct from Polynesia. Micronesia to the north is also distinct and includes Guam, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Nauru, Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, and Wake Island.
