Westralia is a country located in the western half of the Australian continent. It shares only land border with Australia to the east and is surrounded by the Indian Ocean to the north and west. Westralia has a population of over 2.6 million people, with majority of the population resides in the Perth metropolitan area, with smaller populations scattered throughout regional areas, leaving the remainder of the country sparsely populated. The capital city of Westralia is Perth, which is also the largest city in the country. Other major cities include Fremantle, Mandurah, Bunbury, and Kalgoorlie.
Large stretches of land, a variety of landscapes, and breathtaking natural features define the geography of the country. It is known for its diverse terrain, including the arid Outback, ancient rock formations like the Kimberley and Pilbara regions, pristine beaches along the coastline, and the expansive Nullarbor Plain. Westralia's economy is heavily reliant on the mining and resources sector, particularly the extraction and export of iron ore, gold, natural gas, and other minerals, which are abundant on its vast landscape.
