Australia is a country and a continent laying south of Indonesia. It is the sixth largest nation in land area, with about 70% of its 22 million citizens living in the 10 largest cities. Though Australia’s lifestyle is mainly Western, her society has been enhanced by over six million settlers from 200 nations.
The well-known Uluru, also known as Ayers Rock, is one of the oldest geological features in the world. The average elevation of Australia is just over 1,000 feet, making it the flattest continent on Earth. And except for Antarctica, Australia is the driest continent. Due to the isolation of the continent, Australia boasts of many unique birds, animals, and flora. Her best-known animals are the kangaroo, koala, platypus and spiny anteater. (about-australia.com)
