What this map shows
The national outline of Australia, in Oceania, on a Mercator projection fitted to the country. Where the Natural Earth 1:50m file has first-level divisions, such as states or provinces, the sheet draws them instead of a single outline.
The with-cities version marks 36 places: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Newcastle, Gold Coast, Canberra, Cairns, Townsville, Darwin, Bendigo, Hobart, Mandurah, Rockhampton, Orange, Kalgoorlie, Mount Isa, Dubbo, Alice Springs, Geraldton, Albany, Armidale, Whyalla, Devonport, Broken Hill, Karratha, Griffith, Port Hedland, Wangaratta, Port Lincoln, Broome, Portland, Busselton, Katherine and Windorah.
