I wonder how much our tyranny of distance affects this.

All the countries above us are smaller, and some are basically the size of one of our big cities greater metropolitan areas.

You made me think (always useful). Have you noticed how other big countries by area are missing: Canada, China, Russia, Brasil?

You could be right.

Overseas News

A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.

If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.

Rules
  1. Follow the aussie.zone rules
  2. We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
  3. Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
  4. Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.
