The United States is not a continent because it is only a portion of a big land, where Canada and Mexico inhabit the same land mass. Australia is a continent because it is its own place, and it owns the entire land mass. Since the United States does not own the entire land mass it is situated on, where Canada and Mexico inhabit the land mass, also, the United States is not a continent. The United States is only a country.
A mass of land surrounded by bodies of water is known as an island. If an island is large enough, such as Australia or Antarctica, it becomes a continent.
No countries have immigrated to Australia as it is physically impossible for a land mass to relocate to another position across the ocean.However, people from all countries of the world have immigrated to Australia.
Geographically, Australia is a continent, not an island. As a landform, it could be considered an island as it is entirely surrounded by water and not joined onto any other land mass. For this reason, it is often referred to as an island continent. Australia is too big to be formally classified as an island. The world's largest island is Greenland. Another reason why Australia is also considered a continent is because it sits on its own tectonic plate. This is different from Greenland, which uses the same land mass as North America. That is why the geological appearances are much different in Australia from anywhere else. A place like Greenland shares the same geologic attributes as North America.
No. A continent is a mass of land. A country is an area controlled by one government. Asia is a continent with many countries on it. The only continent that is also a country is Australia.
no
The total land area of Australia is 7 692 024 sq km.The total land area of Kazakhstan is around 2 700 000 sq km.Therefore Australia has the larger land mass.
Yes, by a bit. Australia has a land mass of 7,686,850 sq km Jamaica has a land mass of 11,425 sq km
North America has a land mass of approximately 24,360,000 sq km Australia has a land mass of approximately 7,686,850 sq km
Considering the fact that France is about the size of Texas, yes, France is larger.
Larger land mass, smaller than a comtinent

No, not even if you weighed it. Australia is much larger than USA. OOPS got that wrong. Land area of USA is 9.86 M km2. Land area of Australia is 7.62 M km2.
Australia has the least land mass.
It very well could be Texas , compared to Spain, not by much.
"The land mass of the UK is 243,609 sq km The land mass of Australia is 7,692,024 sq km The UK will fit into Australia about 31.5 times."
Malaysia is est at 127,355 miles square land mass Texas is est at 268,820 miles square land mass. Texas land mass in contiguous and does not take any water space into account.
