Australia
Australia's topography is characterized by vast, low-lying plains interspersed with notable highland regions. The Western Plateau, encompassing much of the continent's interior, is a flat expanse punctuated by isolated ranges such as the MacDonnell and Musgrave Ranges, as well as iconic formations like Uluru. Elevations here typically range between 300 to 600 meters (984 to 1,969 feet). To the east, the Great Dividing Range, Australia's most significant mountain system, stretches over 3,500 kilometers (2,175 miles) from northern Queensland to Victoria, featuring plateaus, escarpments, and the continent's highest peak, Mount Kosciuszko, at 2,228 meters (7,310 feet). Between these regions lie the Central Lowlands, a series of expansive, flat basins including the Great Artesian Basin, which is among the world's largest internal drainage areas. Overall, Australia's terrain is predominantly flat, with less than 1% of its landmass exceeding 1,000 meters (3,281 feet) in elevation.
