While a large portion of Australia can be described as the outback, more than 80 per cent of the population live within 50-100 kilometres from the coast in urban areas and built up cities.
Australia prides itself on being successfully multicultural, with 26 per cent of the population born overseas and hundreds of languages spoken and faiths represented. Melbourne is home to the largest Greek population of any city outside Greece and the country often celebrates Chinese, European and American holidays as well as Harmony Day each March 21st, which celebrates cultural diversity.
