Australia Overlayed on Europe
The image is of uncertain provenance (who ever created it used coloured pencils?) – but it certainly shows the scale of Terra Australis when overlayed upon Europe. See larger size here.
Note to visitors from overseas (I hear this quite a bit): "I'm keen to go to Uluru, Broome and the Gold Coast, maybe Tasmania"... that's a long, long way intrepid traveller.
Via Happy Antipodean.

A huge country indeed but Australia with 21.2 million people has less than 3% of the population of Europe.
