It is a dumb nation.
Its a continent because it's so big. And to the loser who posted first, Australians are very smart and organised. And I wonder why america with such a plentiful supply of money and a huge power base still has 1/2 of its citizens living below the poverty line. Compare this to Australia where 80% or so live comforatbly.... Until you dont come to our lovely nation dont comment because ignorant people as your self have no idea...
It's both. As it has water on all sides, technically it's also an island.

...and it's fabulous! I was there 3 weeks ago.
It is both. It is the world's largest island and the world's smallest continent.
