I don't know why but I really thought Australia was the most stable continent in the world (I guess thanks Education Queensland).

I have lived here my whole life and never experienced an Earthquake.

Your education didn't fail you. Australia is an incredibly stable land mass because it sits in the centre of a single plate.

Australia is really stable. The edges of the Australian plate are in New Zealand and Java, which aren't. But tectonic plates are big, and we're in the middle.

its is... very very stable.

those are facts but they're not really in context.
