Australia is 1,800 miles from the mainland of Asia and almost half way round the world from Europe. More than 6,000 miles of ocean separate in from the America. Australia is the only continent except for Antarctica that lies all south of the equator. The natural zones of Australia are very various. There are deserts, semi deserts, grasslands, savannas, bushlands and rainforests. The wet forests occupy the narrow region in the east.

Transportation of convicts to New South Wales ceased in 1840, but continued to Western Australia in 1868. About 160 000 convicts arrived in over 80 years. The convicts were mostly poor townspeople. Only few of them were from wealthier classes. The building of a new society based on these people was an outrageous challenge. The most cunning and skilful of the convicts became later the founders of prominent colonial families. Until 1830s the convicts were harshly punished for almost no reason, flogging being the most common penalty. During the 1850s, the settlement was boosted by gold rushes. Gold was first found at Bayhurst in 1851. Scarcity of labour (tööjõupuudus), the vastness of the bush, and new wealth based on farming, mining and trade all contributed to the development of uniquely Australian social institutions and sensibilities. The idea of unifying all the states first came to Earl Grey in 1847. It was only

Population of the main urban areas in 2001: London 7,172,091 Edinburgh 430,082 Belfast 276,459 Birmingham 970,892 Manchester 394,269 Glasgow 629,501 Cardiff 292,150 The highest densities are to be found in conurbations, which are groups of once separate towns that have grown together. Although Britain is short of housing, planners like to keep a belt of undeveloped land around cities known as a green belt to reduce pollution and provide open spaces for leisure. This has meant that the only alternative to the redevelopment of slum areas in the conurbations (such as the Docklands development in London) has been the creation of New Towns such as Harlow in Essex

The Wallace Monument commemorates William Wallace, the 13th-century Scottish hero. The death of Alexander III in March 1286, followed by the death of his granddaughter Margaret, Maid of Norway, broke the succession line of Scotland's kings. This led to the intervention of Edward I of England, who manipulated this period of confusion to have himself recognised as feudal overlord of Scotland. Edward organised a process to identify the person with the best claim to the vacant crown, which became known as the Great Cause, and this resulted in the enthronement of John Balliol as king. The Scots were resentful of Edward's meddling in their affairs and this relationship quickly broke down
