One thought on “Is Australia a continent/country?”

1. Yes, Australia is both a continent and a country. Geographically, it is the smallest continent, often referred to as the “island continent” because it is surrounded by water. Politically, it is known as the Commonwealth of Australia, which encompasses the mainland of the continent, the island of Tasmania, and many smaller islands. So, in summary, Australia functions as both a continent and a sovereign nation.
