    New Zealand’s gone missing again, I’m assuming it’s lumped in with Australia.

      New Zealand is in stealth mode. We keep it off the maps so trump doesn’t know it exists and leaves it alone

      It’s crazy they did include a bit of Russia near Alaska and also bothered to add the Galapagos (where nobody lives) but omitted NZ

      Continents are mostly a cultural subdivisions, not based on geology, it’s pointless to debate about it. Good video on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrsxRJdwfM0

      Australia’s bigger than Antarctica, and if you don’t care about that “canal crap” then there are only really two continents bigger than it.

    Remember everyone: 100.00% does not mean all, and 0.00% does not mean none, just like 50.00% does not mean exactly half. They all are accurate to 0.005% points.

        IIRC Argentina facilitated a few births on the outlying islands to make a point. Usually kids are avoided in such a harsh and precarious place, though.

      11 people were born there. That’s a ~0.00000000133649348822 chance. Small but not impossible.
