Sample Book Insights:
#1 Australia was originally an island, but it became a continent when it broke off from Antarctica 35 million years ago. It is currently on a collision course with Indonesia, but inhabitants of both countries should not be alarmed as it is moving at seven centimetres a year.
#2 Australia is a large country that is home to many different types of terrain and climates. The majority of it is uninhabitable, and it was not until humans showed up that the Outback was populated.
#3 The first recorded landing in Australia was in 1606 when Willem Janszoon and the crew of the Dutch sailing ship Duyfken went ashore in northern Australia. They thought they were on the island of New Guinea, and after a hostile encounter with locals, they soon departed.
#4 The first Europeans to land in Australia were the crew of the HMS Endeavour in 1788. They were there to establish a penal colony, and the strategic implications of planting the British flag 17,000 kilometers from the center of the empire were considered.
