Oceania is a geopolitical region, rather than a continent, consisting of many countries in the Pacific Ocean, including those in the continent of Australia and the Pacific Islands.

Antarctica, including all territorial claims by sovereign states, is regulated by the Antarctic Treaty System, which defines it as all land and ice shelves south of 60°S. Several dependent territories include sub-Antarctic islands north of 60°S.

Armenia, Azerbaijan, Cyprus, Georgia and Turkey are often considered European countries since they have close political and historical ties with Europe (e.g., they are members of the Council of Europe), and their territories are either partly in Europe or in the vicinity of Europe, depending on the definition of the geographical boundaries between Europe and Asia.

Israel may be considered a European country since it has closer political ties with Europe than with Asia, but this is very rare since the political ties are not particularly close, and its territory is in mainland Asia.

The overseas departments of France, i.e., French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique and Réunion, are sometimes considered European territories since they are integral parts of France and also parts of the European Union.

Note that Russia is generally considered a European country more than an Asian country, since most of its population and its capital city are in Europe, and it has close political and historical ties with Europe, even though most of its territory is in Asia. Among the federal districts of Russia, four are in Europe (Central, Southern, Northwestern and Volga), while three are in Asia (Far Eastern, Siberian and Urals).

The following countries are sometimes considered parts of another continent since they have close political or historical ties with another country in that continent, and their territories are in the vicinity of that continent:
