    Why stop there? After we rule 85% of the world’s land area to belong to just one continent, why split the remaining 15% of Earth’s land in two? That seems awfully imbalanced to me. So I rule that we should just merge Oceania and Antarctica together into the great continent of “Antherest” — after all, the Maori were quite likely the first people to discover Antarctica; Antarctica itself is just an archipelago with the appearance of a contiguous landmass due to its ice (which might not last); and there aren’t really any people on Antarctica to object to being merged with Oceania.
