Oceania (sometimes Oceanica) is a geographical, often geopolitical, region consisting of numerous lands—mostly islands in the Pacific Ocean and vicinity. The term "Oceania" was coined in 1831 by French explorer Dumont d'Urville. The term is used today in many languages to denote a continent comprising Australia and proximate Pacific islands, and is one of eight terrestrial ecozones.

The boundaries of Oceania are defined in a number of ways. Most definitions include parts of Australasia such as Australia, New Zealand, and New Guinea, and all or part of the Malay Archipelago. Ethnologically, the islands that are included in Oceania are divided into the subregions of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia.

When answering a question like this u have to take many various factors into consideration...such as job, school, children, family etc. Let me start with the latter part of your question first. All major settlements that exist in the present day (cities, town etc.) were all established years ago what we see today are simply developments that have been made as time passes. Lets look at major settlements worldwide, such as London, New York, Buenos Aires, Sydney...we'll find that they all have one common geographic feature, they are all on flat plain landforms.
