Question

The ______ Ocean is named after a country.

Answer 1

Hint: An ocean is a body of water containing much of the hydrosphere of a planet. One of the main traditional divisions of the World Ocean is the ocean on Earth. These are the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern (Antarctic), and Arctic Oceans, in descending order by region.

Complete answer: The ocean is a large saltwater body that covers about 71 percent of the surface of the Earth. The Indian Ocean is the only ocean that is named after a nation, India. The shape of the ocean is almost triangular. It is bound by Asia in the north, by Africa in the west, and by Australia in the east.
The Indian Ocean, spanning 70,560,000 km2 (27,240,000 sq mi) or 19.8 percent of the water on Earth's surface, is the third-largest oceanic division in the world. It is confined to the north by Asia, to the west by Africa, and the east by Australia. Depending on the term in use, it is bordered to the south by the Southern Ocean or Antarctica. The Indian Ocean has certain broad marginal or regional seas along with its heart, such as the Arabian Sea, the Laccadive Sea, the Somali Sea, the Bay of Bengal, and the Andaman Sea.

Thus, The answer is Indian Ocean.

Note: Since at least 1515, when the Latin form Oceanus Orientalis Indicus ('Indian Eastern Ocean') is attested, named for India, which projects into it, the Indian Ocean has been called by its present name. It was historically known as the Eastern Ocean, a concept that was still in use until the Pacific was conceived during the mid-18th century (see map), as opposed to the Western Ocean (Atlantic).
