I never knew that there was an 8th continent.. 😭 #shorts

The earth actually has a hidden 8th continent, one which most people have never even heard of. This continent is located underneath New Zealand, and was discovered in 1995 by a geologist using satellite imagery. It is considered a continent despite being submerged because it possesses all three criteria needed to be considered a continent.

[TD_Beta]

The reason New Zealand has “New” in it is because the Dutch who found it named it after the Netherlands’ province of Zeeland

My first thoughts as a kiwi watching this: So does that mean we’re finally bigger than Australia?

"Or are there?"

[GauravSingh-pgzd]

If entire Zealandia comes above the water then NewZealand will no longer to be identified as the small neighbouring partner of Australia.

I feel like it would just become part of Oceania considering New Zealand already is

[ehehegoisounds]

The microcontinent of Zealandia helps determine New Zealand's Exclusive Economic Zone, or the offshore area around a country. A country may use any natural resources, such as oil or fish, in its EEZ without permission from another organization. New Zealand's EEZ is about 4.3 million square kilometers (2.7 million square miles), more than 15 times the amount of land above ground.
