New Zealand doesn't exist.

Poor Taiwan, only excluded due to pressure of China.

What is this new Zealand you speak of? Some sort of mythical place?

I can't even see a Zeeland, clearly the whole thing is another Aussie prank and they should be kicked out for Insubordination

Zeeland is a province in the Netherlands (the origin of the name). So it's on the map, but it isn't new and it's hard to even see a rough shape of where the Netherlands is. But it's there.
