Island
Islands are usually bound to either a continent or ocean. Along coastlines,
many island areas & towns belong to a region of a continent. An island
nation consists of regions of ocean with land areas, cities, and towns,
surrounded by marine areas instead of rural areas.
An island may have multiple land regions, like New Zealand.
(Are Greenland and Iceland multi-region islands?)
Antartica and Australia are considered continents.
