I mean in fairness Australia is a whole ass country
Edit: today I learned Australia also has states :)
You've lost me the USA is a country as well.?
In Aus, we have a state called Western Australia (we're really imaginative with naming,) and its friggin huge...! (Pictured)
Approx 2.6 million km2 Or approx 1 million sq freedom units
Ahh, okay. I didn't look at the picture very closely; I had no idea Australia had states! Nifty
Yeah..! Just not 50 of them,
6 states and 2 internal territories (baby states)
Oh so cute! Is that why we hesitate to give them any autonomy?
