GEOGRAPHY Australia is considered to be the smallest of seven continents and the sixth biggest state. Australia is situated between the South Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean. It is made up of two islands.
Australia is extremely close to other island nations. To the north are: Papa New Guinea, Indonesia and part of Malaysia. Additional to the north are the Philippines and Asian mainland. Australian land mass of nearly 7.7 million km² makes it the sixth largest country in area after Russia, Canada, China, the United States and Brazil.
National parks Australia has over 500 national parks. Over 28 million hectares of land is designated as national park- land, accounting for almost four per cent of Australia's land areas. In addition, a further six per cent of Australia is protected and includes state forests, nature parks and conservation reserves.
Australia is the flattest and (after Antarctica) the driest of conti- nents. Huge areas of land are so dry that they are uninhabited. There are rainforests and vast plains in the north, snowfields in the south east, desert in the centre and fertile croplands in the east, south and south west. About one third of the country lies in the tropics.
Mountain ranges run from north to south along the east coast, reaching their highest point in Mount Kosciusko (7,308 ft; 2,228 m). The Great Barrier Reef, extending about 1,245 miles, lies along the north- east coast.
