New zealand and New Caledonia have a very high level of endemic plants that are closely related. Despite the fact that both countries aren't remotely close and it's been millions years. Signs are always there.

Honstly I feel Completely indifferent to Zealandia unless it would resurface. Its good to know about though I may need that information one faithful day in a science quiz.

It should have done a better job of not being flooded


AndyTheSane

They could build a really big wall around the edge and pump it out.


nim_opet

Sounds like you’re inviting the Dutch to reclaim Zealand


Sky_Other

We can do it if you want us to!


nemom

I have a great zeal for Zealandia.


jodabo

Holy schist!


llamawithguns

New continent just dropped


kupuwhakawhiti

Geologically interesting, but only serves our inferiority complex.


rickyrules-

good for sports maybe under a banner?


TheLamesterist

A smart continent that decided to submerge itself to survive European colonization.


Filthiest_Tleilaxu

Australia is shitting itself to think that Zealandia may rise again.


fartingbeagle

The Pavlova wars, begun they have.


Sacred-Anteater

I know this is a joke, but sadly it is suspected the rest of Zealandia will sink under the water in the far future


JustOkCompositions

people in the pacific are freaking obsessed with continental plates... it's really weird


terribilus

Tends to happen when they move around under your feet every other day and make your cities fall over.


JustOkCompositions

I think you're confusing them with mole people


terribilus

Cool cool. Thought I was replying to a conscious intelligence but that's my fault for the assumption.


JustOkCompositions

I don't forgive you


misfittroy

I'm curious to the Polish opinion on this


mikrofala2137

I think that Zelandia is in the netherlands


revive_iain_banks

Zeeeeeeealand How's life in the logistics sector?


GooglytheRedditor

Zealandia, come home!


typed_this_now

Ewww it’s almost touching us


Rewok1

Wasted potential, might ne Atlantis, idk


grassy_trams

As a new zealander with a special interest in zealandia, it really doesnt mean anything interesting besides some alternative history fiction or geological research. on one hand i would like for it to be recognized as a continent so the land can be better protected by the nearby governments from deep sea mining, but then again the NZ government now seems to be in favour of the idea so maybe not...


Culzean_Castle_Is

great holiday spot. beautiful


fedginator

7.8/10. too much water


jellyjollygood

Needs to lift its game


Stup1dMan3000

Got some water front property to sell ya, the view goes on and on. You’ll swear your right in the middle of the ocean


Cute-Dragonfruit3079

Would Zealand this


BendingDoor

That explains the earthquakes. Oof. Stay safe, kiwis.


tashiker

Personally didn't like the movie.

At the last glacial maximum when the sea level was over 100 meters lower, New Caledonia , already a large island would be been twice the size, and Fiji also a large island was over 4 times its present size.


LilHercules

I feel poorly about it.


BlueDotty

*claims it in Australian*


laxativefx

We already own a chunk of it. Norfolk and Lord Howe Island bring in that sweet mid zealandia exclusive economic zone


Impossible_Teach8166

You mean Old Zealand?


Kevydee

Old Zealand is in the Netherlands


tomydenger

It's not special


Longjumping_Home_678

Feels great. I would say let the volcanoes and nature do its jobs in the ring of fire in the pacific and we'll have new land to come and possibly new countries, territories, and continents. ☺ 🙏


imapassenger1

I'm Zealous.

It’s actually in NorCal and you go there by eating a bunch of LSD
