AUSTRALIA — 1913: An 1 pence carmine postage stamp depicting Kangaroo and Map of Australia. Australia is the oldest, flattest, and driest inhabited continent, with the least fertile soils. It is a megadiverse country, and its size gives it a wide variety of landscapes and climates, with deserts in the centre, tropical rainforests in the north-east, and mountain ranges in the south-east. The kangaroo is a recognizable symbol of Australia. First Australian postage stamps issue. The kangaroo and emu feature on the Australian coat of arms
