Within strong borders it must be noted.

I'm constantly describing CONUS distances to those in the UK, which must be driven to be believed. I once spent weeks trying to cross Texas.

There was a very smart guy from my old company's London office who was spending several weeks with us in NY. It was a presidential election year and he was very interested in politics so he announced, on a Thursday, that he was planning to visit Iowa for the weekend. I asked if he had already booked flights, and he said No, he was proposing to drive. I said, "You can't drive to Iowa and back in a weekend". He said, "Why not?" I said "Because it's about a thousand miles each way!" He just had no real concept of the size of this country.

Re Texas, I often remind europeans that "la France metropolitain" is just 80% the size of that one state.

Yep

Yep

Or to put it another way -

Texas is only 30 Anna Creeks!

For those wondering, Anna Creek Station (Australian station = US ranch) is Australia's largest @ just a smidge under 6 million acres.

Yes, but despite its size, Western Australia has almost no Texans at all in it.

They wouldn't be able to understand each others accents.....

I've spent some quality time with some Aussies on several dive boats we've been on, no issues with comms. Last trip was on board a boat off Papua New Guinea. Guides and crew were great, some quality time with our favorite, sipping Bundaberg Rum, playing a guitar, enjoying life!

Get on the train, Bundaberg train!

He was an ex pilot with Australian air demo team! Roulettes?

The home of Land Trains. I would love to visit your country some day. I’m in lower 50’s so running out of time. I saw Europe on Uncle Sam’s dime. Sure wish I could have visited Australia instead of Austria.

Austria is great, loved Germany and Italy.ǰ So is Australia but my experience was only in and around Sydney and we loved it. Also found many other countries we really enjoyed, Turkey, Greece, Taiwan, Thailand, New Guinea, Japan, Korea, Crete (part of Greece), Saudia Arabia to a point, Egypt, Switzerland, Holland, England, Ireland, Scotland, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia. Etc

Not just Texans. Almost no anybody actually. 1/10th the population of Texas and about 3/4 of them live in one city. The rest of the place is nice and roomy. Extremely diverse though.
