That’s true, but Zealandia would be the world’s largest microcontinent and links Aotearoa with New Caledonia and Rēkohu. Its topography is super cool and makes for a neat range for deep-sea, benthic organisms.
See also: the Tonga–Kermadec Ridge to the northeast, which imo looks sick.
Ah, that makes more sense. I did remember it being a Dutch acquisition.
Dutch cartographers subsequently renamed Tasman’s discovery Nova Zeelandia from Latin, after the Dutch province of Zeeland. This name was later anglicised to New Zealand.

All words are made up.
There’s only one continent if you ignore water.
They flooded Old Zealand to seal Sauron away.
Then the Dutch drained it, built the Deltaworks, and now we live in purgatory

Looks like it but reversed
The rest might flood too and this time it will be our fault.
Yo momma so old she was born in Zealand.
I remember that part of DS :D … not for anything good, tho
I remember going down there too early and not knowing what to do.
Man, thier items must have some crazy descriptions on them
Here’s an example:
The only way to fight back against ghosts, who are cursed beings, is to become cursed oneself.
It’s flooded for a reason, all.
That’s where the rescue team comes from in The Chrysalids
