Is Fiji (Vijay Singh) considered Asia?
posted 21 weeks ago
For purposes of answering this question Fiji is part of Australia. (Sorry Vijay. I've heard that you are a Hubdubber too.) See the explanation below:

Many modern atlases and geography experts now consider the long-established continent of Australia to be better defined as Australia/Oceania, which then combines and includes all of (Australia), the large island groups of New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Fiji, Solomons, and the countless volcanic and coral islands of the south Pacific Ocean, including those of Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia. In short, OCEANIA is now one of the most diverse and fascinating areas on the planet.
