	I've tried to include all territories that lie within the Oceania region. Some that are not typically associated with Oceania appear as bonuses. There are two bonuses that I will update to full answers if popular demand suggests they should be.

	Hawaii should be full answer.

	Bit hard to really define Oceania. Christmas island and Cocos (Keeling) islands are I think technically not in Oceania but kind of count as they are territories of Australia. Perhaps East Timor should count (continental border region) as well? Like the quiz by the way!

	I made them all bonus answers previously for that reason. However I had used Timor Leste and forgotten to include East Timor as an alternative. That's corrected now.

	If you included East Timor as a bonus answer, you should also include Philippines, Taiwan and Japan.

	I don't see why Taiwan should be included as a bonus. Could you explain your reasoning there please? Philippines only claim to Oceania is the Mariana trench and so I don't think I'll include that as a bonus. I suppose I could include Japan on the basis of the small uninhabited territory of Minami Torishima, since I have included small uninhabited territories belonging to the US.

	Chatham Islands? Or are you counting them as New Zealand proper? Good quiz, very tough

	I'm fairly certain "the island" is located in Oceania. But it tends to disappear and skip through time.

	Nice quiz. Maybe add the Caroline Islands in as a bonus?

	A_is_for_Addict:	Aug 9th, 2010 at 19:59 GMT	1 point
	Hmmm, I'm a bit reluctant to add the Caroline Islands since they refer to the Micronesia/Palau island chain. I am including Chatham Islands as part of New Zealand proper, although I'm confused at their status.
