Australia

To the average Australian, Australia is not a dangerous place. Australia's crime rate is not excessive; pollution and environmental contamination levels are also not a major issue, except by comparison to the country's pristine land prior to European settlement; and the country is free of major diseases such as rabies.

Australia is filled with numerous dangerous creatures, such as venomous snakes, spiders and jellyfish. Then there are the huge estuarine crocodiles, or large marine predators such as sharks. In reality, Australia is no more dangerous than other countries. A bit of common sense ensures one can live a long and healthy life without even being hospitalised.

The first inhabitants of Australia were the indigenous people known as the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanderpeople.

Australia is the name of the continent on which the country of Australia exists.

Australasia is a region ... which includes Australia, Christmas Islands, Cocos Islands, New Guinea, New Zealand, Norfolk Island and is a part of Oceania.

Oceania is the entire region of the south west Pacific and includes Australia, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu and others.

So there is no other name for Australasia or Oceania - and while the regions do overlap, they are not the same thing.

Hence, comprehensively, Oceania is not a continent but a region of the Pacific Ocean. It comprises many nations, their territories, and independent islands such as: * Australia * New Zealand * East Timor * Fiji * parts of Indonesia * New Caledonia * Papua New Guinea * Solomon Islands * Vanuatu * Micronesia * Guam * Kiribati * Marshall Island * Nauru * North Mariana Island * Palau * American Samoa * Cook Island * French Polynesia * Nive * Samoa * Tokelau * Tonga * Tuvalu * Wallis & Futuna.

Finally, being a large country by comparison, the states of Australia include Tasmania, New South Wales, Victoria, Western Australia, South Australia and Queensland. There are also two 'territories': Northern Territory and the Australian Capital Territory (ACT).

It is difficult to determine which part of Australia has the actual highest temperature, as so much of the remote desert area does not have temperatures recorded. The town of Cloncurry in northwest Queensland holds the record for the highest temperature in the shade recorded in Australia, at 53.1 °C (127.5 °F) on 16 January 1889. The world heat record goes to Marble Bar in Western Australia, which recorded maximum temperatures equalling or exceeding 37.8°C on 161 consecutive days, between 30 October 1923 and 7 April 1924.

The 2008 rice crop of 19,400 tonnes is the lowest in the Australian rice sector's history (since 1928),and represents just over 1% of normal production. This is not surprising given rice is an opportunistic crop in its fifth year of drought. ( Australian Farmers Federation)

Snow in Alice Spring is extremely rare. Since European settlement, there have been a few cases recorded of blowing snowflakes, but only 4 occurrences of snow on the ground in any real quantity. All these cases occurred during the icy winter of 1836.

T.A Browne (better known as Rolf Boldrewood, author of "Robbery Under Arms") kept weather observations during this period and noted that "the years 1836, 1837 and 1838 were years of drought, and in one of these years (1836) a remarkable thing happened. There was a fall of snow; we made snowballs at Alice Spring and enjoyed the usual schoolboy amusements therewith".

The Alice Spring Herald reported on the same incident headed "A Stranger"

"For the first time in the memory of the oldest inhabitants, snow fell in Alice Spring on the morning of Tuesday last. (27 June 1836)

About 7 O'clock in the morning, a drifting fall covered the streets nearly one inch in depth. Some of the "old hands" expressed a hope that their old acquaintances Messrs. Frost and Snow do not intend emigrating to NSW".

this record is not up to date because it has snowed in Alice Spring 1n the 1960s
