Questions about this page
What are the best known nature & landscapes in Oceania?
Funafuti in Tuvalu leads the list. Capital of Tuvalu.
Which country in Oceania has the most?
Australia (746), New Zealand (346) and Papua New Guinea (57). That ranks how much Wikidata records, not what exists on the ground.
How much of the world is that?
1,354 of the 25,830 nature & landscapes on this atlas, so 5%. The rest are on the worldwide page.
Where does this information come from?
Every place is drawn from Wikidata (CC0), with photographs from Wikimedia Commons and a link to its English Wikipedia article. Selection is deterministic: a place is here because Wikidata files it under one of the classes this atlas carries and it has coordinates, a photo and an article. Nothing is written or chosen by an AI, and the ranking is simply how many Wikipedia language editions cover a place.
