Introduction The largaest island and he smallest continent in the world contains an immense variety of different landscapes in an area of 7,682,300 kmē. The continent separates two great oceans - the Pacific to the east and the Indian Ocean to the west. There are enormous areas which are arid or semi-dessert and mostly uninhabited. This is the reason why Australia has one of the highest urbanizations of the world. Nearly 88 per cent of ist 18,3 million inhabitants live in cities. Nowadays about 95 per cents of Australia's inhabitants are whites. Another 4 per cents are Asian and the rest, only 1 per cent, are Aborigines.
