Australia is the largest country in the world.

Or hump penguins.

But stay away from the sea lions. Nasty creatures.

I'll have to try that...

Or hump penguins.

It’s ice cream!

You're wrong, Australia isn't a country.

In all seriousness I feel some of this at least is likely due to it being much easier to argue against a singular statement or fact. Whereas questions tend to often be more open ended making them complicated (if at all possible) to answer with any certainty. With asking questions, what you ask and how you ask it is very important in terms of the responses you get.

The problem stems from that and if you do answer, someone is sure to correct you 🙂

Okay, so if the earth is round and Australia is down on the bottom side, why is the label on the map printed upright? Checkmate, round-earther mates.

Australia could be represented on the top of the globe and the USA, Russia, England etc. on the bottom. For some reason most of the first world countries are on one side of the equator, so they got on the top of the earth facsimile we call the globe.

I thought Australia is a kingdom and Steve Irwin its king.

That's the great thing about Google Earth, you can orient the globe how ever you'd like and then just let it spin.

There's a whole lot of ocean out there in the Pacific.

An Australian aside....

@Darwin333 opportunity missed.

Damn, the fucker cheated though by giving the croc something to eat first. I would have loved it if the croc though "wait, there is a bigger meal acting like a total douchebag sitting me right now, when he gets off I'm going to take out his legs and eat that asshole too. If I miss my tasty snack will still be here waiting for me, bet he won't try and get it back". Then he I would have definitely given him an award, he's young too so chances of him having already contaminated the gene pool with his retard are fairly low.

To be a bit fairer, they are the ones that created the maps over a very long period. It wasn't like they were going to put the latest discovery on top of them.

Dorset is the bigerestly country.

It's sometimes deceiving how big some land masses are because of the way they show up on a map, which sometimes does not componsate well for the earth's roundness. For example, Alaska is actually much bigger than most people think.
