An island continent, Australia was cut off from the rest of the world for millions of years. As a result, it was the last continent to be discovered and settled by Europeans.
Australia is the driest continent on earth. The four great deserts of central Australia cover 2,000,000 square kilometres. There are few rivers there. Coastline of South Australia has some beautiful beaches with cliffs shaped by the wind and waves.
Australia is the flattest of all continents. Its most significant mountain chain is the Great Dividing Range running down most of the east coast.
Many species of its animals and plants are ancient and unique. Many of them are found nowhere else in the world, they are endemic. There live kangaroos, koalas, echidnas and a lot of rare birds: emu, black swan, parrots, etc.
However, Australia is the most urbanized country in the world. Two out of three of its citizens live in the eight largest cities.
