    What are the two smallest continents in land area that also fit the definition of an island?

    Question #85762. Asked by remingtonasks. (Sep 13 07 1:23 AM)

    		Australia and Antarctica.

    Australia is the smallest continent, and completely surrrounded by water hence fits an island's definition.

    Europe is the second smallest but is adjoined to Asia.

    The next smallest is Antarctica, which is completely surrounded by the Antarctic Ocean, hence also fits the island definition.
