It should read 'What is the continent of Australia?'

As continent it is a tectonic plate which has detached from Antarctica and is moving North/North Eastwards, into the Eastern part of Indonesia. The mountains in Papua New Guinea (PNG) are the northern plate boundary. They are being 'pushed up' as a result of the Australian plate moving north into the Indonesian plates.

As a nation it's formal title is 'The Commonwealth of Australia'. The capital city is 'Canberra' ; NEITHER Sydney nor Melbourne. It is a western style constitutional monarchy. King Charles(III) of the UK is the Head of State. There are some 20 million people in the country. The nation is divided into states and territories. viz. Australian Capital Territory(ACT), New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia , and Tasmania.
