In describing the scale of distances (and time) in the United States to a brit: > In England, 100 miles is a long distance. In the US, 100 years is a long time. This likely applies to Australia as well. Note that this is a vast oversimplification as there is certainly culture in both Australia and the US that is much older than 100 years, but it gives the sense that the country is young - the difference between the old world and the new world. |
