Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Oceania is a region made up of thousands of islands throughout the Central and South Pacific Ocean. It includes Australia, the smallest continent in terms of total land area.
Detailed explanation-2: -Oceania covers about 20 million square miles (50 million square kilometers), or roughly one third of the enormous Pacific Ocean.
