What is one of the continents listed as being in the Southern Hemisphere?

Australia is one of the continents located entirely in the Southern Hemisphere. It is situated below the equator and is surrounded by the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Its geographical positioning means that it experiences seasonal weather patterns that are different from those in the Northern Hemisphere.

In contrast, Europe, Africa, and Asia are positioned in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. For instance, Africa straddles the equator, with parts of it in the Southern Hemisphere, but it is not entirely within it. Similarly, Europe and Asia are largely located in the Northern Hemisphere, making Australia the only continent that fits the criteria of being fully within the Southern Hemisphere.
