Look, talk to me when you can win a war against Emus.We don't even use the whole continent. But we never lost to emus. And that graphic is absurd. Australia is only 5 times the size of Texas and less than 5 times the size of Alaska. We have states larger than your States..and uhmm territories and whatever.
“I Before E except after C, or when sounding like A as in neighbor and weigh.” However- statistical analysis of over 350,000 words reveals that while almost 3/4 of words DO follow the I before E rule, there’s actually a much higher number of English words with cie than cei. In the end, the “rule” works out to be more of a guideline than a rule. It’s like the pirates code of language. As for Australia vs US- Australia is rather large, but 90% of the continent is deemed “unihabitable” and the vast majority of the population lives in an area that is less than the size of Texas give or take. That isn’t a dig or anything, it’s just an interesting fact related to the sizes of the countries.
About 40% of the land mass of the United States is considered inhabitable. I personally don’t consider much farther east than Fresno to be inhabitable, but to each their own. If t wasn’t for hurricanes and the like- Florida I kinda like. I like the beaches there, and I like how cheap everything is, beach front property for less than half price? Can’t complain. Until a storm comes anyway. I can respect the tenacity of those who choose to deal with such hazzards, but I don’t have the tolerance for risk for it.
Hey, hey, hey. We keep the crocodiles under control, the alligators are being fed and we got the wild pig and we only have six venomous snakes in Florida.
Look @this_isntme why are you so worried about the bloody emu war loss, it was literally two soldiers with machineguns against 20000 emus, theres not exactly a lot ya can do especially when we had only been our own nation for around 30 or so years at the time
Hurr durr they lost to Emu's hurr durr. Look, we get it. They tried to cull the emu population and failed. But I bet you couldn't do it. Now, I know NZ and Aus have a pretty fierce rivallry, but I'll be damned if I just let you attack my neighbour
