Australia is a dangerous place and our American cousins know what's important on a map.
According to Americans posting these maps at reddit.com/r/funny, everything is out to kill humans.
Red = Instant Death. Blue = Likely Death. Convinced?
Who cares what we call our States?
Australia's oceans teem with killers.
The interior is basically a death zone.
Stay. Out. Of. The. Centre.
Oh okay then. This effort is actually pretty accurate.
Southern Ocean Kangaroos?
Some Septics know our cultural icons.
Others really have no idea.
Thanks for your honesty mate. But really? Fail.
Others remember the coastline, but not much else.
And then there's the self-educators, who learned everything they know from a Disney movie.
Yes, this is a real address.
Australia beyond our two biggest cities? Not so much.
Tasmania? Not even on the map.
There is a Kangaroo Island, but Tasmania ain't it.
And Western Australia is doing just fine, thanks.
Mainly cos Perth is protected by a BBQ Proof Fence.
23m people live in Australia. Who knew? Apparently not your average American.
Over The Ditch? New Zealand aka The Shire.
To be honest, Australia is a pretty complex country.
And actually, we've got much more in common than you think.
Though our State names are a little baffling.
Fuckdoodle!? Adelaideans are not amused.
Still, complete lack of geographical and cultural knowledge aside, we like your American depictions of Australia much better than the Pommie ones.
Come visit us soon mates. We can't wait!
