That is a sea. Used to be seven seas but when I googled it there are a lot more. Red Sea, Baltic sea, Carribean, Sea of Japan and a bunch more.

The Mediterranean is a Sea. I homeschool and none of my maps list the Southern Ocean. They were all bought after 2000 so it should have been on it. So far, none of the books we have used mention it either. (I buy new yearly & they are supposed to be the most up-to-date printed.) I learned about it on the internet.

Huh. I didn't know that I didn't know that.
Might have been happier in my ignorance, too; not so happy when new things get by me - makes me feel OLD! :lol:
