Australia is a country which is also an island-continent.
The only one in the world.
That's just one of the reasons that make us and our wildlife unique.
The island continent -
Mainland Australia, with an area of 7.69 million square kilometres, is the Earth’s largest island but smallest continent.
It stretches about 3700 kilometres from north to south and 4000 kilometres from east to west.
In area, Australia is the 6th largest nation after Russia, Canada, China, the United States and Brazil.
It is about twice the size of the European Union or the ten nations that make up the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
Its ocean territory—the third largest in the world—spans three oceans and covers around 12 million square kilometres.

so basically australia is an island plus continent plus a country. that's why Australians are proud of themselves.

It's both. It's an island because it's completely surrounded by water and it's also been named a continent.

It's a continent that *technically* has the properties of an island ^_^

It's both.

It is an island, a big one in fact, in some ways since it's surrounded by water but Australia is rarely called this.
It is mostly considered a continent because of its size.

You could say it was not an island if you took this definition...
Island....A land mass (SMALLER THAN A CONTINENT) which is completely surrounded by water.
The world's biggest island is Greenland.
