Interesting to know!

Australia was not always in the location and shape it is recognized today. Millions of years ago, it was part of the great land mass called Gondwanaland. Later on, the continent of Australia began to drift away from this great land mass and around the Mesozoic era, dinosaurs roamed the land.

This era is referred to as prehistory rather than history because of the scarcity of written records of human events in Australia of that time.
