Australia has the big advantage of summer hots today, when is very cold in the northern hemisphere. The australian climate is very dried.

By far the largest part of Australia is desert or semi-arid( sound like dreaming, you don’t need to pay high heating bills). Australia is the flattest continent, has the oldest and least fertile soils, and is the driest inhabited continent. Only the south-east and south-west corners of the continent have a temperate climate. Most of the population lives along the temperate south-eastern coastline. The landscapes of the northern part of the country, with a tropical climate, consist of rain forest, woodland, grassland, mangrove swamps, and desert. The climate is significantly influenced by ocean currents, including the El Niño southern oscillation, which is correlated with periodic drought, and the seasonal tropical low pressure system that produces cyclones in northern Australia.

What is really unique in Australia is the fauna: kangaroo, emu bird, black swan etc.

This koala is very friendly, and needs spectator ship.

Because of its arid weather, only 15% of the Australia population live to the countryside.

Nevertheless , Australia has a very developed agriculture, being one of the biggest exporters of sheep, lams, wool and so on.

The population concentrated on the coast , in cities like Sidney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane.

Sidney is the biggest city of Australia, and the really financial , cultural and economic capital. More about Sidney, next time with your permission.
