I live in Western Australia (WA). This video shows about 0.0001% of the things WA has to offer.

Yes! But shhh if everyone knows about us we won’t be little anymore :)
I have not watched the video yet but I agree wholeheartedly. Unless the video was about a year and a half long it couldn’t show more than a minute fraction
That be tru
Good job with accent. Western Australian born and bred. WA really is a separate country.
I've worked at the major gold refinery in Perth and the Perth Mint, where they make gold bars, ingots, and all sorts of coins, jewellery and other exotic items out of precious metals, including the world's biggest gold coin, which was on display outside the New York Stock Exchange and covered by CNBC, not long before Covid from memory. I then got to work at the gold and precious metals refinery in Melbourne and I also know people who have worked at Argyle Diamonds - I just missed out on that trip. All these sites have high security. Every time you enter and exit, you go through security, which is a bit like going to the airport but they also make you remove your shoes, belts etc and go through scanning. These processes, as well as accounting controls etc. are regularly assessed and tested by consultants. Security is made a lot easier for metals in this way. Diamonds are trickier and can be secreted anywhere, so the security measures are tighter. There have been people who have tried things like treading on them, so they get embedded in the soles of their shoes but security is usually fairly wise to these things and you'd likely end up in jail and lose your high paying job if you tried it. By the way, Argyle Diamonds generally have a unique pink colour and they are running out, so their price exceeds that of a regular clear diamond. Some people invest in them because their value tends to go up annually at a decent rate. As far as the mine sites go, they're fairly remote, so to get there you generally have to fly or be incredibly well prepared with off-road vehicles, extra fuel tanks, water, food etc. Once you're there, you'd have to get past security and somehow find your way down into the pits, which are usually being mined 24/7. There is security, fences, locks and gates. Also to get there you need to ride elevators or other machinery and know where you are going in the dark. To breathe, you also might need to turn on ventilation. If you could make it this far, you probably still wouldn't trip over a gold nugget or a raw diamond. All major gold mines only operate financially on a few grams of gold per tonne of material. You need explosives, machinery, physical separation and concentration methods that usually involve chemicals to extract the product from large amounts of material, and even then, the resulting material can be sent elsewhere for further refining or diamond cutting. Most gold mined contains impurities like copper and silver, so a lot of it has to be sent to a third party refiner to get it to 99%+ purity. I know Phez was half-joking but I thought I might be able to better address this theoretical possibility. I also had a brief stint in law enforcement, and I know there were also police in Kalgoorlie, where the Super Pit and much of the mining is going on, who are wholly funded by the mining companies to run a specialised gold stealing unit. Its mainly just another deterrent, but some brazen people get caught occasionally, who are generally insiders who try to exploit their knowledge and access. I know a story of one particular guy, who knew the cops were onto him, so he went down into the mine with explosives strapped to his head and that was his last act in this world. Hope I haven't bored anyone with this detail but thought it might be of interest to someone out there.
Alaska is around 1.718 million square km compared to Western Australia at 2.646 million square km so Western Australia is almost twice the size of Alaska.
Peace out.
✌🇦🇺 Fr: Perth Western Australia
I was born in Newcastle NSW but my home is here in the West since 1975.
I live in the South West region of Peel.
The West Coast here was formed in the first 150 million years of the Earth's formation. The sun had been beating down on the land ever since..
We have the oldest sample of rock zircon w74 which holds a time line that has astonished the scientists.
We have the Thrombolites still in our area.. they helped the Earth oxygenate.
I have a small piece of that rock polished it was dated 3.8 billion years old. Taken from an ancient river bed.
Wikipedia; Kings Park - Western Australia at 400.6 ha, it is the biggest city park in the world (larger than New York's Central Park at 315 ha and London's Hyde Park at 121 ha) The Western Australian Botanic Garden is a living collection of the State's unique native flora including rare and endangered species.
I have lived in Melbourne and Sydney... I have come back to perth... It's a gorgeous city, and the weather is the best in the country. melb and syd will always have more to do, but perth has so much to offer...
I'm a proud sandgroper (the nickname of people born in Western Australia) and have lived up North in one of the iron ore mining towns, in Perth, in Kalgoorlie (the home of the gold Super Pit) and now in Bunbury in the South West. In between I've lived on the East Coast and several places in Canada, but am so much happier back here.
I'm surprised they covered the Batavia but not Black Jack Anderson, our very own pirate. Plus MANY other amazing things about WA. It is very true about succession talk still being discussed, most recently during the pandemic when our numbers were extremely minimal as our border was totally closed, as soon as it opened the virus has run rampant. During the border closure, one politician/businessman tried suing the state and premier for being locked out and lost; needless to say that guy did rather badly in the federal election we had this past weekend!
I had the privilege to see Billy Joel at the old now demolished entertainment center in Perth Western Australia.
Billy walked onto the center of the stage to thunderous applause. He just stood there and didn't say a word.
The audience went quiet as he stretch out his arm and pointed his finger down to the stage floor.
He looked down at his finger and slowly raised it following it with his eyes as far as he could reach above his head.
He then lowered it stared at the audience for a few seconds and said.
This is A "Fkg Big State" to more thunderous applause. Good old Billy we all had a great evening.
As a West Australian that missed many many highlights
Also, we are closer to Singapore than Canberra. We also have the largest solid gold coin in the world.
King's Park is in the middle of Perth, and is mostly natural bushland. That is what makes it so different to other parks.
It has areas that are developed as you would expect of a park, but the founding fathers locked it away in perpetuity for public use. As a result, even very wealthy people (and we have plenty of them) cannot buy that land. Many visitors drive in the entrance road, get out of their car to see the view over the city and never realise that the park extends far, far further.
I am from Devonport Tasmania which is located in the north of the state with a population of around 30,000 people, Devonport is well known because of a ferry service between Devonport and Melbourne which has two ferries that make the crossing across Bass Strait every day
Central Park, NY, 3.41 km^2. Size of Kings Park, Perth, 4.06 km^2.
City parks are definitely different from national parks. Western Australia has some huge national parks as well.
I worked at Argyle diamond mine and no not really theres protocols for the miners as they leave the mine and the refineries but theres no ARMED guards
Have you heard of the native Western Australian Sandgroper? Check it out!
He called it a central city park (something like that) meaning a park in a city.
I've seen a piece of the Batavia in our museum.
anyone who is interested...The Royal Australian Doctors Service is celebrating its 94th year.
Kings Park is the largest inner City park in the world
Western Australian is the sleeping city that’s not talked about a lot and that’s the way I like it😊
Would never live anywhere els.👍🏻🐨🇦🇺
I'm from Ipswich, in the state of Queensland in beautiful Australia. 🇦🇺
Some mines you have to sign into my dad used to take supplies out and they even drug test workers for health and safety they work hard for the money they make. Don't think you get on the property without someone knowing due to the high amount of money on these propertys
Roo much effort on the accent Miles! But Im from WA so all those “Aussie” accents sound thick to me. Regional differences and all that. As you have just learned, we’re pretty isolated from the rest of the country over here.
A quick google search reveals WA has Alaska beat by about a million square kilometres (1.7 for Alaska, 2.6 for WA).
Interesting fact about secession: today, it would be impossible for the state to petition the UK house of commons, as Australia is now fully politically independent from the UK (the monarchy is nothing more than tokenistic in regards fo Australia). It creates an interesting question as to when Australia actually became an independent nation in its own right.
Perth rhymes with Earth. It is not one of the most isolated state capitals, it is the most isolated state capital.
This guy doesn’t even scratch the surface of how crazy the Batavia story is. Firstly Captain Pelsart left to get help from Jakarta in a rowboat. Its also likely Corneliusz had planned the shipwrecking in an attempt to steal the treasure on board. Lastly, Corneliusz’s plan only failed because Pelsaert showed up just in time.
He said City Park Phez, not National Park. So you’re also wrong Miles. Kings park sits on top of Mount Eliza. As kids driving across the Swan River, we used to compete to be the first to spot the cenotaph war memorial on the top of the hill.
Accent rating? Getting better...10/10 for effort.. but some of your vowels are sounding more South African than Australian!😬
A couple of tips on getting the accent. The Australian accent is "non-rhotic". That is, we don't pronounce the 'r's at the end of words and syllables - same as a Boston accent. So "car park" is "cah pahk". Same with "largest" - the 'ar' should sound like "ah". Say "LAH-jest".
When you say "Australia", you are currently pronouncing all the letters - which is VERY un-Australian. In your intro, you began "Australia" with a short "o" sound, as in "off", "on" and "Austria". Try saying it instead with a short "u" sound, as in "up" and "us". "Us-TRAIL-ya" (In a phonetics dictionary it might be written as /ə/, but let's not get too technical)
So its "Us-trail-ya" - or for a broader accent, leave the "L" out altogether. Say "Us-traya", or just " 'Straya". For "Western" - don't forget to drop the 'r'. Say "West'n".
Repeat 100 times: "Ustraya's lahjest state is West'n Ustraya."🤭😜
Argyle diamond mine is now closed down. Kings Park is a city park it's a beautiful place to check out. That video did no justice to how beautiful WA is. West is defiently best
My wife and I rented a camper, and went up the west coast to Kalbarri, where 2 people from the Batavia were marooned
check out the kimberley. incredible place in the top part of west australia.
That guy narrating lost me at “emoo”. Clearly his research didn’t extend to the proper pronunciation of our unique bird.
Americans pronounce it that way. Lots of online debates between Aussies and Americans over that topic.
Hate to say, but happy they sped up the sound so vid wouldn't be as boring as them.
They sound so disinterested. Sorry guys.
@@R3WIRED There is no debate.
@@flamingfrancis You can say that, but there is. Thousands of them online. I bet the debate is happening between people as I type this right now lol.
@@R3WIRED You are likely correct.
There probably are Aussies and Americans debating about the correct pronunciation of an Australian animal...
🤔
Who would know best I wonder...
Now the debate about tomarto, tomayto is less clear cut

Best effort so far with the accent. I'm from the beautiful Hunter Valley region of New South Wales.
Isn't Houston called the "Arm pit of Texas"? Along with Beaumont?
Your accent was a 4 out of 10. i am from Perth Western Australia, born n bred!
WA is not the same as CA, USA. Australians don't like WA since it is so far from Sydney/Mel. There are plenty of South East Asians living there.
Swanbourne Beach is nudist only.
By the way, I'm originally from Sth Cal & been living in WA, Sydney and Brisbane too. And I call WA is my 2nd home and Oz is my country.
Thursday Island, Torres Strait, Queensland 4875
Western Australia (Australia) is 71% larger than Alaska (USA); Texas is around 3.8 times smaller than Western Australia.
I have lived here in WA most of my life . I am now 63yo and trust me when I tell you . THIS vid didn't touch on Anything really . WA is just SO much more than is shown here . Perhaps you should take a look at some REAL tourism vids and get a REAL idea of life here in the Wild West .The guy in the vid actually said correctly , that , Kings Park is an INNER CITY Park who's size exceeds that of Central Park .
Genuinely, you two idiots are wonderfully fun to watch.
Love; random Aussie.
Chugach State Park in Anchorage, Alaska is the largest urban/city park in the world and is over 200000 hectares in size.
CBD?
@@aussie405 well CBD parks are a subset of urban parks, so that's a different question. I doubt any would be particularly impressive in size due to the value of the land they would occupy.
Although it does appear to extend pretty far in to the city.
King's Park is completely enveloped by the CBD, the Swan River and a couple of other very old inner city suburbs. Sky scrapers are within walking distance.
I'm from Melbourne Australia but one day I would love to get to Western Australia
I’m from WA but currently living in QLD. Moving back in a few months hopefully if all goes well, part of me thinks I’m insane for going back especially to the place I’m going (Karratha) but I’m pretty keen to see family.
Waikiki, Western Australia 6169
Think all states need to vote, to leave, not only WA? From Central Coast, Australia.
Alaska would fit ten times into wa andperth is so faraway from the east coast a domestic flight costs as much as overseas flights to Indonesia
From a person that is from and lives in Western Australia this video tells you hardly anything at all find another one to watch
"Street Elias" - siri
I’m living here not rich at all. However I’m doing ok. It’s a great place to live Kings Park is not a National Park. It’s a park in the city.
Fyi the ship wreak had nothing to do with Australia as at the time there was no Australia so they can't put that shit on us. It is one of those stupid stories that has nothing to do with Australia at all. 👍
Pls watch honkai impact concert Starfire sonorant it was fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Haha yes, national parks and parks are very different
"We're" was sounding more kiwi than aussie
Your accent doing Australian is weird and you wanted it rated . I give you a 5 🤣🤣🤣
I'd say a 3-4 lmao
Yeah ya bein generous there cob 🤣
He's having a go n that's all ya can ask eh👍😁
It's amuses, so keep it coming Miles! 😁

Australia was name New Holland in 1644 by a Dutch guy called Able Tasam.

Kings Park is the largest CITY park on the planet. All of his other facts were pretty obtuse. Noone seriously believes in secession here in Perth. We haven't got the population to support our own military for starters....
Biggest city park in the world
If you were 10% on board that would be fine enough ...But Western Australia is 200 years behind America's most backward state . We still have a heavily bought government and is considered the most corrupt ... We generate the most in export dollars yet its not distributed per area but more on popular states . To travel out of the metro area the roads become treacherous and has the highest rate of road deaths . We have huge cattle station owned by Asian or English owners . Our Grain growers are the biggest area's compared to Russia's and 90% exported . It was once the "Bread Basket" of Australia . It was a great place ...
10 on the accent

I've lived out in the Perth Hills for the past 10 years and have never heard secession mentioned at all. You can fit Alaska into WA 5 times and Texas 3 times.
People living in the hills wouldn't have heard much that goes on 😂😂😂
@@seanvda3612 Yes, and that's why we live in the Hills :) :)
Shit video to do on WA! It's an Amazing & stunningly beautiful state. Bias but True👍

True, but there is only one Kimberly
He said Kings Park is the largest *city* park in the world - no the largest park. hence the comparison to Central Park.
Wrong, wrong, wrong. Central Park has an area of 3.46 km2 while Kings Park is 4.06 km2. Kings Park is the biggest city park in the world. Google it.
@@johnvandeven2188 I was simply pointing out what the guy in the video said. He stated it was the largest CITY park in the world, and not the largest PARK in the world (which seemed to confuse the Commodity boys). Learn to read English a bit better before you get back on your Troll Trolley.
Guys, he said Kings Park is the largest CITY park…
The 2 Dutch guys dumped on the mainland after the Batavia massacre may have survived, there’s a line of evidence including DNA and language pointing to their presence in the past.

@@emceeboogieboots1608 No there is the constant reemergence of Blonde hair in the Aborigines that has been noticed for well over 200 years plus, this does not happen anywhere else on the continent. There are also Aboriginal words that are identical to old Dutch.
I live in Victoria at the moment, but I've lived all over. WA is a really nice place. Perth is a beautiful city. And driving up the coast to Carnarvon, Karratha, Broome and on to Darwin is such a beautiful trip.
Hi, I live in Perth. Perth is divided into North of the river and South of the river... NoR or SoR.... and the rivalry is as great as the east coast v west coast.
That video was shit! Not your fault though.
When holidaying we either go up north ( dry, hot ) or down south (green, lush, cooler).
It takes tge same amount of time to fly from perth to melbourne as it is perth to bali... which is one reason we are known for holidaying in bali.... also for the price of a return flight to melbourne you can get return flights, accomodation and spending money.
Western Australia is a great place to live.
I am from Broome (Western Australia) a 2-hour flight from Perth (Western Australia), Hope to see you brothers out here in Australia someday in the future😎
Check out Red Dog, awesome movie based on a true story in Western Australia.
I’m from Perth, Western Australia. You can tell a sandgroper - our nickname - by the fact that we refer to our state as ‘west Australia’. We also pronounce derby with an ‘e’ and if you ask an Australian who is not a sandgroper what polony is, they won’t know. Anyone not a sandgroper is an eastern stater, which is not a compliment.
I worked for argyle diamonds for 7 years. Argyle is pronounced with a hard ‘g’. The mine shut years ago. In its heyday I used to be able to stand in a large room up to my knees in diamonds - 10% of one months production. There are diamond sites across WA but the locations are generally kept secret.
Perth is actually the mining capital of the world.
West Australia has an amazing range of spectacular stuff. We have cattle stations (you’d call them ranches) that are bigger than many countries in Europe.
Why does that guy sound like Borat?
The main reason we live mostly in the south is because our political leaders have no vision and refuse to stop pandering to miners and build proper cities in the north, even though two of the owners of the states biggest mining companies actually want us to build cities in the north.
The Batavia saga is actually extremely bizarre. Cornelius was punished by having his hands and feet cut off before he was hanged and left on the scaffold built on one of the islands.
We have more species of wild flowers than the rest of Australia put together.
The video missed a heap of really interesting things in WA. We have Ningaloo reef - the western equivalent to the barrier reef, except you can walk to the Ningaloo reef off the beach. We have shark bay world heritage area - a park as big and as interesting as Yellowstone, where you can see the worlds oldest living organisms, and which has dinosaur footprints frozen in time - mud actually (the location of which are secret).
Wow I live in Perth and I just learnt so much from u haha 😄 and I was born here hahaha
I thought there was an effort to make the Pilbara region the site of the next city in WA.
And to be fair, WA should have grown settled cities like Albany, Bunbury, Geraldton and Esperance a long time ago. At least making them as big as Newcastle, Canberra or the Gold Coast.
And yes I pin it down to political unwillingness. WA would have been far more prosperous by now had that been made possible
@@marcozolo3536 Bunbury is growing but mostly organically. It isnt planned. The rest of them are still just small cities, not growing. Albany is nice but its too far away from asia to be worth growing. The real reason noone built major cities up there was the diseases and water. Both are fixable problems now so theres no real excuse.
@@tileux Well people need to want to live there. I lived in Port Hedland for a couple of years and I wouldn't recommend it.
Having said that it is near some awesome places like Broome, Millstream, Karajini etc. And it has some wicked fishing
@@emceeboogieboots1608 If they simply built a city of two milllion or more there people would go. And they could do that with some forward planning. Make it completely renewable too. None of its going to grow organically.
West is Best ☝️🤠
😂😂😂 sureeee
@@user-we5gv1bh9d west is best.. East is least 😋
I’m from Perth (Peerf) Western Australia and yep Kings park is beautiful (for those pokermon go people it is great on community day).. but love it when he said Eemoo (emu) hahaha!
I live in Western Australia and the Argyle diamond mine has the most modern security set up and trying to sneak out or steal diamonds is not going to happen.Kings park is large but I don't think its the largest city park in the world.We have many other things that are the largest in the world though including,roadtrains,cattle stations,trains,goldmines,iron ore mines,lithium mines,etc
I’ve lived in Sydney Melbourne Brisbane and Perth where I am at the minute and I prefer Perth to the rest of Australia as the weather is very predictable sometimes when it turns bad well it can be very bad
that was so boring that to amuse myself i unscrewed my navel with a philips head screwdriver to see what would happen , unfortunately when i stood up my arse fell off
bahahahahahahahaha I hope your arse didn't get lost maaaaaaaaaaaaate.
😂
Proud West Aussie here. WA is 71% larger than Alaska and 3-4 times bigger than Texas.
Fair dinkum lads you are just doing fine with the Aussie accent. Keep practising 🙂 As a true blue born and bred Sandgroper (West Australian), the video didn't come close to showcasing or explaining this big beautiful state of ours. You'll just have to come on down under to see for yourselves. Why not include Bali or the Philippines or Singapore or Malaysia or Thailand in your travels as these countries are generally closer for us to travel to and cheaper than holidaying on the east coast of Oz. Cheers dears 🍻
As far as I know, getting an uncut diamond cut is also extremely hard without certification of the diamond's origin. You would have to smuggle it out of the country to find somewhere to get it cut.
Argyle is now closed, but you used to be able to do a tour there.
You could spend years looking at w.a the best state
On the way back to Perth, we stopped at Cervantes, where the Pinnacles are….
I'm a biased Western Australian and despite the remoteness is a great place to live in and visit. Perth is a very clean safe prosperous city and the Southwest has lots of natural beauty including rugged coastline, beautiful sandy beaches,forests with huge trees etc. We locals consider it one of the world's best kept secrets.
Guys he said CITY PARK..!! ... Have you ever seen a park in any CITY as big as a national park? I mean many national parks globally are as big as some small countries, surely that would have been self explanatory that they weren't saying Kings Park is the biggest PARK, but the biggest PARK IN A CITY.. It's like comparing the worlds tallest mountain IN A CITY to the world's tallest mountain, or the world's tallest building IN A UNIVERSITY to the world's tallest building.. etc .. Some common sense Bruz!
"CITY" Park not "NATIONAL" park! It's not a competition.! .......But ..... if it was we are winning!
It should be said, Australia is OLD.... Western Australia is very old... basically The Earth is over 4½ Billion years old, parts of Western Australia are 3 Billion years old. Life exploded at about 2½ Billion years ago.
As for Road Trains, they are also huge, and operate in every state and the Northern Territory, except Victoria and Tasmania. They're generally restricted to non-metropolitan or urban areas. The largest vehicle operating in Victoria or Tasmania, without permitted exemption, is called a B-double, consisting of a tractor (prime mover) and two trailers, an A and B trailer, the A is a solid block full-length and the B is half-length in a gooseneck, with the load canterlevered over the tractor, with the axles under a second hitch under the front of the A trailer.. Victoria had an explicit permit for a B-triple service to operate on an exact route between factories, a triple is two B trailers and a single A...
Road Trains can consist of upto three A trailers and two B trailers, and two dollies to convert.... so for the 18 wheeler comparison, start with a twin steer tri-drive tractor, that's 4+12 wheels already, if each trailer has two axles and singles on dollies, that's 4+4+4+4+4+2+2 = 24, or if each A trailer had four axles, and the B trailers and dollies have three axles, that's 16+16+16+12+12+12+12 = 96.... adding all of that up that could be 112 tyres on the road.
The compiler of the video being commented on is laughable.Very unconvincing accent and feels like he / she / it is reading from a Google search.
WA has never seriously threatened to secede from the Commonwealth but the topic has come up when Commonwealth Government distribution of GST income has been bandied around. WA gets nowhere near a proportionate amount compared to their contribution.
A sovereign Province was set up in 1970 for a region of WA. The Hutt River Provinvce became a first with its' own government and currency. It returned to the Commonwealth in 2020.
The analogy of Perth to Houston is a long way off the mark. Perth has a Mediterranean climate
The comment re parks related to CITY parks not national parks.
The image shown is NOT the Argyle diamonds mine but relates to the Kalgoorlie Superpit that information was given on.
Fun Facts about WA
Is the only State / Territory that was not part of New South Wales.
Originally founded as the Swan River colony, named after the river on which Perth and Fremantle sit.
The Swan River , was given its name by Dutch explorer William De vlamingh in 1697 who explored the river and area and named it after the black swans that are indigenous to the state. The black swan also appears on the state flag and coat of arms etc.
Southwest WA is classed as a global biodiversity hotspot.
Shark Bay in the Midwest is home to one of the oldest and largest colony of stromatolites and home to numerous endangered and unique marine life.
kalgoorlie - Boulder City in the eastern goldfields is one of the world’s largest gold mining regions with over 60 million ounces of gold mined .
And lots more !
Kings Park is the largest inner city Park, Though there are so many National Parks here, it is hard to decide where to go, since they all offer some thing different, travelled all over this red land have see good lot of them, still fair few on my list that I have yet to see. Do not forget when want to hit me up if want look at sponsors, 1st tip is go to WA, NT ( last SA, QLD they will look at it if do the out of way places) you do not want to hit the North of WA, NT, QLD &SA Nth & inland areas where they will want the spotlight) You can decide where want to start using date want to start, AFL played all over and Country AFL or Pro Comps in all but one of those States is Massive, must check out our Remote Community games many do not have grass or wear shoes to play.
Sorry guys gave you thumbs up since am from WA but Thumbs Down for whoever made this Video. We have so many great Aussie Made videos on YT only issue is finding them normally on 5th page of google when search, will flick you some on Discord when have time I always watch full clip before put recommend React.

Errrrr... I'll give your Australian accent a... 7/10. The pronunciations in the video you watched were pretty terrible.
About 250kms WNW of Brisbane Queensland near Nanango sort of. Mum lives in WA somewhere on a cattle station as a caretaker and cleaner and cook.
Lol no problems I speed up videos as well because they speak to slow 👍
More facts. WA is so big I could play in snow on Bluff Knoll in the morning, then catch planes and fly 3,000km to dodge crocodiles in 100F rain forests in the afternoon. It would contain most of Europe, excluding Russia. If WA was a separate country it would be the world's richest per person, over $110,000 for every MAN, WOMAN and CHILD, EVERY YEAR, beating Qatar and Switzerland, and it's also the richest in GDP output as well, earn 55% of Australian export income, despite only having 11% of the Australian population. We don't want to be part of Australia. This year, Perth was voted by Australians as the best place to live, it is consistently voted by European, Asian and American countries as a top 10 city. We get 8 hours AVERAGE SUNSHINE EVERY DAY OF THE YEAR. WA is in exactly the same time zone as 30% of the world TOTAL human population and money. Kings Park is the largest CENTRAL CITY park. We could easily have added John Forrest and 10 other huge parks bordering Perth. We have protected forest areas that go for hundreds of miles adjoining Perth! We are taller, stronger, faster, more intelligent and better looking than Australians, but you probably knew that. In fact, I offered Victoria to Putin as a possible nuclear waste dump or sewerage treatment plant. He was quite rude when he said " NYET! It isn't good enough for that purpose!"
Checked. Average income actually is $133,000 pa. State GDP is $360 Billion: Is that enough for a country? Sydney has a higher GDP.
Would Eastern Australia have to defend WA? New Zealand can’t afford to defend itself. Saving NZ would probably fall Australia.
Commodity prices are not always stable. Though, WA does have Lithium and Rare Earths, which with be in high demand over many decades to come. Argentina was in WA’s position c. 1900. Unlike several resource rich countries, today’s Australia has trillions in its Banks and, trillions in Retirement Funds. The financial and high technology centres are in the East. Of course Trade is important, yet, two thirds of Australia’s GDP comes knowledge industries and services. Best to stay together - Central Coast, NSW
@@petersinclair3997 there's a thousand ways to interpret data. Eg, Canberra is allocated a massive GDP, but in reality it contributes almost nothing. Passing the same $10 note around a table isn't really contributing. WA, with 10% of the population brings in around 50% of Australian export income. The cash. The real stuff. The facts. Then, WA individuals contribute over $8,000 per person to the Commonwealth, 10 times the contribution of NSW, the only other net contributor. I have seen the net wealth per person in WA to be almost a million each. In the real world, the true figure is generated by dividing the export income by the cost of running the economy. Forget the bullshit. It's money in, money out, that's it. Without money in, the rest is bullshit. On a per capita basis of real wealth, WA individuals have risen from 3rd behind Switzerland then Qatar 2 years ago, then 2nd behind Qatar, to being the top last year. In 2020, the WA individual ranking, even according to the Australian bullshit method was $135,00 per person, compared to the Australian number of $80,000, which includes the WA contribution. Defend? We get on very well with China and Indonesia, they only hate Australia. Given we contribute over 50% of Australian income, the spending money, we take 50% of Australian defence equipment.
