Wikipedia definition
4. Mainland​Mainland is a name given to a large landmass in a region (as contrasted with a nearby island or islands),or to the largest of a group of islands in an archipelago. Sometimes its residents are called "Mainlanders". Because of its larger area, a mainland almost always has a much larger population than its associated islands, and mainlander culture and politics sometimes threaten to dominate those of the islands.
