Thank you for your response ...
Australia is a continent with One country ; Australia..... which is surrounded by water-- Definitely not landlocked, so you can say that's a correct answer. Antarctica has zero countries, so I guess you could say it doesn't have "a single land-locked country", but once again, Antarctica is surrounded by the Southern Ocean, thus it's not landlocked either...
Keep me honest !
