But today's Australia is one of the most urbanized countries in the world. For many years, Australia was a part of the British Empire, and the Anglo-Celtic heritage has greatly influenced the country's lifestyle. The traditional British supper is still very common, and barbecues ("the barbies", as Australians call it) are a typical Australian pastime. There is also the traditional Aboriginal cooking in Australia. It consists of such unique foods as kangaroo, wombat, turtle, eel, emu, and snake meat. Almost all Australians love sports. Soccer, rugby, cricket, cycling, bush walking (hiking), tennis, and golf are very popular among Australians of all ages. Australians love to celebrate their national holidays. Along with New Year's Day, Easter, and Christmas, they celebrate the Australia Day on January 26, the Queen's birthday, and they also have several festivals during a year.

Australia Topic Koostas: Aineõpetaja: Tallinn 2011 Location Only one country in the world fills a whole continent. That country is Australia. The continent it fills is Australia, too. Australia, then, is both a country and a continent. If someone wants to make clear that he is speaking of the country, he may call it by its full name of Commonwealth of Australia. Sixty million years ago Australia and its nearby islands were separated from the rest of the world by a great upheaval. They were cut off from Asia by the ocean. Very few people and almost no animals visited Australia before English colonists began to settle there in 1788. During all those 60 million years the native Australian mammals developed by themselves, undisturbed by the animals developing elsewhere. Australia is the only continent except Antarctica that is all south of the equator. It's name means "southland". Si
It consists of a shield containing the badges of six Australian states, enclosed by an ermine border. The shield is a symbol for the federation of the states, which took place in 1901. The crest, which is above the shield, is a seven-pointed gold star on a blue and gold wreath. The seven points of the star represent exactly the same thing that they do on the flag. The supporters of the shield are native Australian animals: the red kangaroo and the emu. Usually the coat of arms is depicted on the background of sprays of golden wattle with a scroll beneath it containing the word `Australia'. Australia's national anthem is `Advance Australia Fair', which replaced `God Save the Queen' in 1984. It was written by a Scottish-born composer, Peter Dodds McCormick. The unofficial anthem of Australia is `Waltzing Matilda'. It tells a story about a swagman, who has named his sleeping blanket Matilda
