Talk:Australia

States

I've replaced the word 'state' in the first paragraph with 'nation', as the Commonwealth of Australia is actually a federation of states, and 'tis better not to overload the term.

Also made the distinction between Oceania and Asia slightly clearer, and added the Australian Antarctic Territories to the roster of places.

'Australian Aborigines' versus 'Aborigines'

'Aborigines' is a generic term for native peoples, which deserves a separate article.

So, in the beginning sentence I left the term 'aborigines' in the text, but provided a link to an 'Australian Aborigines' article.
