L'Oceania (anche Continente Nuovissimo) è il continente della Terra che ha come parte continentale l'Australia e che comprende la maggior parte delle isole dell'oceano Pacifico: Melanesia (inclusa la Nuova Guinea), Micronesia e Polinesia (inclusa la Nuova Zelanda). Il continente deve il suo nome al termine "oceano", per il ruolo fondamentale che il Pacifico ha nell'unire le migliaia di isole che ne fanno parte: più di trentamila. L'appellativo "nuovissimo" deriva dal fatto che, eccetto l'Antartide, fu l'ultimo a essere scoperto dagli europei e l'ultimo a essere completamente popolato dall'uomo: pur essendo il suo popolamento iniziato circa 65 000 anni fa, e quindi prima dell'arrivo degli uomini moderni in Europa, esso fu completato in linea di massima tra il I secolo d.C. (Polinesia centrale) e il 1000 (Nuova Zelanda).
