Number of time zones by continent

nazar.data:

Oceania has 11 time zones because its countries and territories are scattered across a massive stretch of the Pacific. Antarctica, though, is unique—since it spans every line of longitude, it technically has all 24 time zones. Even if researchers stick to their own country's time back at their bases, the continent itself still holds every zone on the clock.
