Yet other map ignoring New Zealand.

I get your joke but isn't it there? Or is this part of Austria? It's hard to tell but I think New Zealand is there

It's there. I'd argue Australia is worse off in this map.

Yet it is there. Only continent totally thrown of the edge is Antarctica. I wonder why... just asking questions, not implying any agenda

I don't think penguins are included in the population count, otherwise NZ would have another 500k population.

I'm pretty sure there's a Big Antarctica conspiracy to keep penguins off the map, hiding their army of 44m penguins.
