Its about 3200 km i think, but i'm not sure.

A Mate of mine went from Melbourne to Perth driving. They started at 7AM every day and finished around 7PM. It took them 9 days.

 

Its about 4-5 days (solid driving at between 60-100mph) to get across Australia. The mid section along the south coast is basically uninhabited.

Its about the same width as the USA, but imagine if only: Miami, Washington, New York, New Orleans, Los Angles and Chicago were the only major population centres and the rest was, for all extents and purposes, uninhabited.

 

you wouldnt wanna break down on the nullubor (however u spell it:S)... that would be scary

 

This is something that anyone can do. Take our you map of the world and have a look at where the equator sits. Yes, thats right. The equator, the line that we designate as the 'middle' of the Earth sits, yeah, you guessed, 2/3 down the page. No, the equator does sit in the middle of your map. Obviously the result is that all countries in the top half of the world look mighty impressive, whereas the Southern Hemisphere looks kinda pathetic.

Edit: obviously some maps aren't quite so ethnocentric - but no map can ever accurately depict a 3-D world without distorting or altering the image somewhat.

 

I'm another Sandgroper here
