Australia is a continent located
southeast of Asia and forming, with the nearby island of
Tasmania, the Commonwealth of Australia, a self-governing member
of the Commonwealth
of Nations. The Commonwealth of Australia is made up of six states and two territories.
The area of the commonwealth is 7,682,300 sq km, making Australia the smallest
continent in the world, but the sixth largest country. The capital of Australia is
Canberra, and the largest city is Sydney; both are located in the southeast.
Australia
lacks mountains of great height; it is one of the world's flattest landmasses. The
average elevation is about 300 m. The interior is a series of great plains, or low
plateaus, which are generally higher in the northeast. Low -lying coastal plains,
averaging about 65 km in width, fringe the continent. In the east, southeast, and
southwest, these plains are the most densely populated areas of Australia.
In the east
the coastal plains are separated from the vast interior plains by the Great Dividing
Range, or Eastern Highlands. This mountainous region averages about 1,200 m in
height and stretches along the eastern coast. Much of the region consists of high
plateaus broken by gorges and canyons. The western half of the continent is an
enormous plateau, about 300 to 450 m above sea level. The central basin, or th e
Central-Eastern Lowlands, is an area of vast, rolling plains. In this region lies the
richest pastoral and agricultural land in Australia.
