Crazy but True

Oceania is mostly water. The region spreads across roughly a third of the Earth's surface, yet almost all of that is ocean rather than land. Its scattered island nations control enormous stretches of sea, and Kiribati alone claims territory covering an area larger than India, nearly all of it underwater.
