TheSassyBlogger Flag: The flag of Australia is based on the British maritime Blue Ensign – a blue field with the United Kingdom flag (Union Jack) in the canton or upper hoist quarter – augmented with a large white seven-pointed star (the Commonwealth Star) and a representation of the Southern Cross constellation, made up of five white stars – one small five-pointed star and four, larger, seven-pointed stars.

AUSTRALIA is Known for:

1. Kangaroos
Australia is famous for its many marsupials (mammals with pouches).Of course, one of the most recognized is the kangaroo – and for good reason thanks to the likes of Skippy. The kangaroo is so famously Australian that it features as one of the national symbols of Australia, along with the golden wattle and emu.

2. Wine Regions
Australian love to drink a cold beer but the real jewel in Australia’s beverage crown is its wines. Australia is famous for its export of top-quality wines, and nearly every state claims theirs is the best. These are the best wine regions namely Barossa Valley, Yarra Valley, Hunter Valley, Tamar Valley and Swan Valley.
3. Surfer’s Paradise
Australia is also known for being a number one destination for party-lovers. Although major cities like Sydney and Melbourne take most of the credit for this, The Gold Coast, Queensland is where the real chaos happens. More specifically, in Surfers Paradise.

Best Food that you should taste once:
1. Meat Pies
Arguably the most iconic Aussie fast food is the meat pie. A golden, flaky crust surrounds meat in a thick gravy, although many Aussies like to add ketchup to the pastry. The humble meat pie was brought to Australia by the English and they’ve been served up for a long time.
