The literal answer to your question is Madagascar, a very large island off the coast of Africa which is about 3500 miles south (and 1100 miles to the east) of Greece. It is the largest island located south of Greece. I suspect, however, that what you are asking for the name of the largest of the Greek islands to the south of mainland Greece: that large island in the very south of Greece is Crete.

West Coast.

Yes, but snow in Australia falls in limited areas compared to the entire area of the continent.

Winter time sees excellent snowfalls for skiing in the Snowy Mountains region of southeastern New South Wales and northeastern Victoria. Central Tasmania also sees good snowfalls. These falls usually only start in June at the earliest - usually July - and continue through August, tapering off in the early months of Spring. Several of Australia's main snow resorts include the Kosciuszko National Park in NSW (Charlotte's Pass, Thredbo, Blue Cow) and Victoria (Mt Bogong, Fall's Creek, Mt Hotham, etc).

Snow also falls (rarely) in southwest Western Australia, the southeast of South Australia, the highlands of Tasmania, Victoria, NSW (e.g. Blue Mountains to Orange) and even southern Queensland on the border around Stanthorpe.It has even been known to snow towards the coast in Victoria, in Gippsland and near the Great Ocean Road.

Of Australia's major cities, Canberra is the most likely to receive snow, followed by Hobart, but these falls are usually very light.

Like Route 1, 101 and 66 in the US, the Aussies also have a few legendary highways. No comprehensive plan for a National Highway system was put into place until 1974 when connectivity was finally worked out at a political level. Perhaps the first highway with a purpose in Australia was created during WWII to defend against potential Japanese Invasion. The Stuart Highway created a North-South route across the continent and deserves the title of the Main Highway. Other routes claim primacy and a few have genuine claims. Until you travel them and meet up with a road train. no concept of the Australian Highway System makes any sense at all. As a footnote, US Route 66 never went from coast to coast, It never went to either coast. It stopped short of the Pacific, and its Easternmost terminus was Chicago. So much for a claim to history.

As you depart the Gold Coast airport, look out for signs pointing to Brisbane. Once you are on the main Pacific Highway, proceed north for about 85 kilometres. There is no need to exit until several kilometres after crossing the Gateway Bridge over the Brisbane River. The necessary exit for the Brisbane Airport is clearly marked.

The five smaller stars on the right hand side of the Australian flag form the constellation of the Southern Cross. This constellation is seen only in the Southern Hemisphere, and was a valuable navigational aid to early sailors.

Life in Europe was very hard as a result of damage done to both the people and the infrastructure of many countries of Europe. Australia offered a chance to build a new life away from the poverty and strife that had become a part of many peoples' lives. Some left a hard life and others came to Australia because they sensed that there were opportunities that could be developed (or in some cases, exploited).

Australia had a major imigration program after WWII under the Chifley government. There was a lot of pressure from other major powers for Australia to take and resettle displaced persons from eastern Europe.

One of the main attractions for migrants after World War II was the offer of steady work. The Snowy Mountains Hydro-Electric Scheme was built by more than 100,000 people from over thirty countries. 75% of these were migrants who were attracted to Australia by the promise of good wages for working on the scheme, particularly in the light of the post-World War II slump.

Rabbits - considered the most destructive introduced pest in Australia - cause damage in the following ways.
Seven rabbits are said to each eat as much as one sheep, but they breed much more quickly. Their ability to increase rapidly and spread meant they literally ate their way across the nation. Grass, crops, young plants and trees are some of the things they consider delicious. Their diet, though, results in large areas of land being made into eroded wastelands. Revegetation is difficult unless they have been depleted in an area by introduced viruses. They particularly destroy leguminous plants which cannot then enrich the soil. These useful plants are replaced by weedy varieties that thrive on lower nutrient-rich soil.
Rabbits also compete with and displace the native animals which do not breed as rapidly. Rabbit mothers produce about five litters a year, with about six new little rabbits in each. This is thought to have affected the Bilby population, as just one example.

In Australia each state and territory has its own set of Constitutional Laws that are legally binding to the original Constitution. Laws can be changed according to the constitution if the High Court can deem the State or

Territory law unconstitutional.

By air it can be done in just over a day. There are no direct flights from Ireland to Australia, so as there are stopovers, it will depend on the length of them to determine how long a particular journey will take.

Several constellations can be seen in the night sky in Australia. The Cross, Centarus, Orion, the South Pole Star, and several others.

A coral reef is a plant in the ocean that can produce food for animals.It also can be a home.Even clownfish live in coral reefs.Ever seen the move "Finding Nemo"?Well Nemo and his dad live in a coral reef!

Wombats usually sleep in their burrow during the day. On sunny winter afternoons, they can sometimes be seen sunning themselves near the entrance.

About 24% of the Australian population was born overseas (4,956,863 people) (As of mid-2006).

According to 2006 figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, 57% of people living in the cities and urban areas of Australia attended university. Although the figure is lower in rural areas, a great many more people live in the city. This figure was up from 44% in 1996, so the trend is increasing upwards.

Although Australia has a low population density and a relatively small population of about 22 million, most of the country is inhospitable desert, so most people tend to live in the small temperate areas along some of the coast. There is also not much water in Australia so much of the country is under water restrictions.

There is a school of thought that due to Australia's climate, the long term maximum sustainable population levels should revert to World War 2 levels of 9 to 10 million.

Yes. Melbourne (capital city of Victoria) has a population of somewhere between 3.5 to 3.8 milion people and is growing at a considerable rate.

There are nearly 2 million inhabitants living in the city boundaries of Brisbane, the capital city of Queensland.

The gold rush began in Western Australia when prospectors Arthur Bayley and William Ford found a rich reef of gold in 1892, which they named "Bayley's Reward" at the site of Coolgardie, a small town which lies about 570km east of Perth, Western Australia.

Irishman Paddy Hannan discovered gold at Mount Charlotte, less than 40 kilometres from the Coolgardie Goldfields, a year later in 1893, sparking off the Kalgoorlie goldrush.
