Australia is truly unique in that it is an island, a nation, and a continent all together. The continent of Australia is an island, and the entire continent is a single nation!
The first inhabitants of Australia were the aboriginals who were later joined by other ethnic groups. The Europeans arrived only in the 1700s.
Most of the population lives along the coast. Australia is a place of many wonders, with a lake that is pink in colour and animals that are found nowhere else, including kangaroos, koalas and Tasmanian devils.
Australian culture is as broad and varied as the country’s landscape that includes some of the world’s most exotic species of plants. In Australia, you can travel from scorching deserts to snow clad mountains, dazzling white beaches and magical coral reefs without ever leaving the country.
