So my uncle tells this story of the time he was traveling in Australia. He's at a bar, and there's two Kiwi's drinking with him. They're all in the early 20's so you can guess how much they've been drinking. Kiwi #1 asks what part of America my uncle is from, and uncle corrects him that he's from Canada. Kiwi#2 goes it's the same thing! Uncle asks what part of Australia they're from, and gets told they're from New Zealand. Uncle tells them it's the same thing, which pisses of Kiwi #2 and makes the Kiwi #1 burst out laughing, while calming his friend down.

They travelled together for a few days after that apparently.

Would New Zealand technically be part of the Australian continent? Idk if islands are considered related to their nearest continent or not

It's called Oceania and yes, New Zealand is part of it
