It's called Oceania mate. At least get the name of your map right even if it will probably never be completed! :p

As for the islands, perhaps do something like in ancient greece and circle the groups of islands.

Ok...perhaps the circles themselves can be coloured instead of the land?

well... Austrailia, Indonesia, for the obvious ones. For an unobvious one, there seems to be 5 islands at the North East all owned by the U.S., that could be a continent.

Indonesia
Laos
Malaysia
Myanmar
Philippines
Singapore
Thailand
Timor-Leste (East Timor)

Ok these a part of Asia, and you include some country to Australia and Oceania.

In the case of Oceania and all the small islands, I think the most important thing to do first is playability and having it actually make sense. But if you do want to try improving graphics first, adding texture is a good way to start.
