Though the map shown below was drawn many years ago, perhaps they had an insight about the real shape of OZ, or so says the Premier of Western Australia.
As you can see the west coast of the country has quite a bit of detail, it's as if Colin Barnett had a hand in the shaping of this continent, for as we all know the only part of this country that contributes to the economy is Western Australia.
The discovery of this map will undoubtedly reinforce Colin's belief that the other states don't really exist.
Past history need not be taken into account, for even though the other states have subsidised WA since federation it is of no consequence in the time called NOW.
Perhaps the next state to find an old map they can call their own will be Queensland, isn't Australia the land of a fair go after all!
A fair go nowadays seems to mean it's fair to go it alone without regard for the consequences to others. Has greed become such the norm that if we show compassion we are ridiculed.

IS THIS THE AUSTRALIA WE WANT
I DON'T THINK SO!
Bellin’s map, published with the aid of The Royal Society in 1753, names Australia as New Holland
