Why does USA have a billion states and populated from coast to coast while Australia has five states and almost fuckall?

Australia will be the next US
Or Canada but yanks are already leeching off their resources
>>
the interior of the US is very habitable. some of the longest tracts of navigable rivers in the world, overlaying lots of arable land. The government system forces state investment in the interior and rural area, unlike some countries that only invest in coastal cities and ignore their rural regions.
>>
>>67686409
Geography.

Only about 15% of Australia is inhabitable whereas the US had the most navigable rivers and arable land of any country, making it massively suitable for humans.
>>
>>67686409
It's a wasteland

Because they're better

I heard that you Australiabros have like sheep stations and shit (US word: ranch) like 600 or 1000 miles away from the nearest civilization... I doubt you could get any more desolate than say 75 or so miles out in the U.S.

Any of you Aussies ever been to, lived on, or worked at such a cattle/sheep station?
>>
>>67688040
Been near one.

They're bleak.

What happens our in the middle of fucking nowhere in Australia? Just a bunch of abbos lying on the road and lighting shit on fire or what?

Lies, the vast majority of Australia is in fact habitable, it's just no as habitable as the coasts and people have no reason to inhabit it.

Nah, there is just no motivation to colonise the centre of the country. Everything but the red is fully habitable

Whole world.

Yeah, the American West isn't much better than the Outback and is far more inhabited, but then again it does have the Colorado River.
>>
>>67689189
>>67689276
The red is pretty much uninhabitable in any permanent way, and some of the yellow has a very small amount or undrinkable bore water too. We definitely could have more people living in the yellow, but why would we, there's nothing there and god it would be bleak and depressing.
>>
>>67689407
>The red is pretty much uninhabitable in any permanent way

Have you seen the middle east?
>>
>>67689384
Probably also because Americans take "because it's there" as an adequate reason to settle a place.
>>
>>67689384
>>67689488
Don't forget that half of the American west is running out of water now.

Colonising a place doesn't mean the colony is sustainable, economically or environmentally.

>>67689451
Yes and I don't care for it. Most of the middle east isn't as far from a coast as inner Aus as well.
>>
>>67689570
>Don't forget that half of the American west is running out of water now.
That's mostly California, which sustains a shitton of agriculture. Agreed in general, though.
>>
>>67689570

Pumping water inland isn't hard. The point is that we could settle the inner parts of the continent but we have no need or desire to do so.

The US has more than twice the population of the UK, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand combined. Really makes you think.
>>
Because about 90% of Australia is an inhospitable shithole. Same reason Canada has only 30 million people and 10 provinces, even if we're the second biggest country on Earth.
>>
>>67690175
Let's purchase one, together.

Australia seems like a good place to invade desu.

I know, I just wanted some "fuck off, we're full" comments from Australians.

>>67691047
When I was younger I wanted to move to Australia, but after hearing they are 1/4 Chinese and 1/4 Indian now, not so much any more
>>
>>67691047
actually afaik we're trading some of our brown refugees to america for some peurto rican regugees (or some other mexican-type people).

>>67691091
Pretty sure we're about 85% white. Not that I actually give a shit. Why would you want to move here anyway?

I worked on a sheep station for a few weeks. It was an hour drive to the nearest town of about 250 people. It was alright, payed well

Wool was the biggest export of australia back in the day. It's been said that australia was built on the back of the sheep. There are still a lot of sheep farms and wool is still a decently large industry here. What's funny about sheep stations?

how so, isn't all the population in nice small concentrated centers that can be invaded from the sea? Or can you actually retreat into the barren interior like desert Russians?
>>
>>67691525
I keep up with it every now and again. I barrack for the calgary flames. But no, we don't. We like field hockey but that only comes up during the olympics.

>>67691719
Our navy is the strongest part of our defence force. But if someone did manage to invade, taking over the cities would be relatively easy I suppose. But we're extremely far away from everything so supply lines would be tough to maintain.

And yeah, we have no guns but we are cunts so you can count on us retreating and taking back our land through guerilla war.

Hey, that's cool. Why'd you do it, where'd you get the opportunity?

Been looking at pictures of some of the highways that connect desert places in Australia, like the one that goes through Telfer. I know Slim Dusty wrote a lot of trucking songs but do you really have guys driving tractor trailers across that desert to get from one side of the country to another faster? It's amazing...
>>
>>67690931
I just want to live out the mateship of my dreams like in the movies
>>
>>67686409
Most of the US interior is pretty empty too. It's still more populated, because it's much more habitable than than the australian interior.
>>
Australians are not very bright people.
>>
>prosper on the coast
>mine the fuck out of the middle that nobody cares about

Seems like a pretty good system to be honest.
