The question was...

Which statement is true about the smallest of the continents?


  • Answer: It is also a country.

    Wrong. Australia, the continent, is made up of more than one country.

Australasia...

"comprises Australia, New Zealand, and some neighbouring islands. It is used in a number of different contexts including geopolitically, physiogeographically, and ecologically where the term covers several slightly different but related regions."

....as clear as the proverbial mud then. :D

When I was at school it was the continent of Australasia, but these days it's just plain Australia.
