All continents differ from each other in many ways, but also have many things in common. Some things that are unique about Australia include:

  • It is the smallest continent
  • It is the least populated continent (that actually has a population)
  • It is the only populated continent fully in the Southern Hemisphere
  • It contains many animals native only to Australia, such as the Emu
  • It is the only continent to be fully occupied by one country, for which it shares its name
  • Australia was the last continent to be made known to the world and inhabited
  • Humans are believed to have first migrated to Australia 30,000 years ago
