Do the southern hemisphere and in the northern hemisphere have the same constellations?
No, the southern hemisphere has different constellations than the northern hemisphere due to the Earth's tilt and rotation. Some constellations visible in the north may not be visible in the south, and vice versa.
What are the constellations seen in the southern hemisphere?
The main circumpolar constellations, which cannot be seen from the Northern hemisphere are Carina, Centaurus (Centaur) and Crux (Southern Cross). Carina is part of what used to be Argo Navis, a large ship, but has since been divided into three smaller constellations, Carina (the keel), Puppis (the poop deck) and Vela (the sails). Hydra (Snake), Pavo (Peacock), Musca (Fly), Apus (Bird) and Chamaeleon are some smaller ones which might be mainly or exclusively visible in the South. Most of the other constellations can be seen at some time during the year from the Northern hemisphere, although countries far north may not see them.
What constellations would you see in the northern hemisphere?
In the northern hemisphere, you would be able to see constellations such as Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, Cassiopeia, Draco, and Orion. These constellations are visible at different times of the year and are easily recognizable in the northern sky.

Can same star constellations be seen from Europe and Australia?
Some of them, yes. Constellations along the Zodiac can be seen from either hemisphere, but constellations well away from the celesial equator cannot be seen very far in the other hemisphere. For example, Ursa Major is not visible in Australia, and the Southern Cross is not visible in Europe or North America. Most of the "official" constellations were named by northern hemisphere astronomers, or European navigators sailing in southern waters. Look at how many southern hemisphere constellations have a nautical theme; the Telescope, the Octant, the Quadrant. Even Cetus, the Whale, was named by sailors, not people who LIVED there.
Do the southern hemisphere and in the northern hemisphere have the same constellations?
No, the southern hemisphere has different constellations than the northern hemisphere due to the Earth's tilt and rotation. Some constellations visible in the north may not be visible in the south, and vice versa.
Why aren't all constellations visible all year?
Circumpolar constellations are visible all year long, depending on where you are viewing them from. At the north pole, or the south pole, some constellations are visible year-round, these are the circumpolar constellations. On the equator, there are no circumpolar constellations because of the earths rotation, that is why circumpolar constellations are at the "poles". Some of the circumpolar constellations can also be viewed from other parts of the same hemisphere, such as the big dipper and the little dipper, although they are circumpolar, they are also seen in other parts of the northern hemisphere. Circumpolar constellations in the northern hemisphere, will never be seen at the south pole, and vice versa. I hope this helped.
What constellations can't be seen?
Too many to mention - there are about 88 officially recognized constellations and more than 2/3rds of them can be seen from the Northern Hemisphere.

Why would constellations near polaris be seen all year round by people in the northern hemisphere?
Also known as the North Star, Polaris, is located within one degree of the north celestial pole - the point of Earth's axis of rotation. This means that the Earth's (geographic) north pole is pointing almost exactly to the point in the sky where Polaris is located. For this reason, Polaris can be seen by anyone in the northern hemisphere throughout the year.
