Australia is about the size of Western Europe, but has a population
of less than two million. More than 70 per cent of its people live in
the capital, Perth.
Opportunities to serve niche markets in Asia provide an important stimulus

The State is a leading supplier of bulk ores for the world aluminium
and steel industries. Other minerals produced include nickel and titanium,
rare earths, gold and diamonds.

emblem of Western Australia on 9 November 1960. [Proclamation]
It is one of about twelve species of the genus Anigozanthos which is
restricted to the south-west of Western Australia. The family Haemodoraceae
to which it belongs occurs in Australia, Papua New Guinea, South Africa
and the Americas.
The author of the genus was the French botanist, Jacques-Julian Houton
de Labillardiere, who was the first to collect the kangaroo paw, Anigozanthos
rufus, near
Esperance in 1792.
