How did New Caledonia even make it to the World Cup?

2 nations from Oceania quality, so always new zealand and the best island nation.

And it’s important to mention that any good enough player to be called up to the France NT cannot play New Caledonia afterward. While not as bountiful as other French islands like Martinique or Gouadeloupe (Henry, Martial…) they formed some absolute elite player like Karambeu, Kombouare or Zimako. And of course a ton of great rugby players

Is Australia not considered Oceania when it comes to the World Cup?
