But if you're from Australia you should know that your country isnt exactly typical?

There's a few big metros the rest of it is sparse, where sparse is a stretch? Isn't Perth like the most isolated city in the world?

Perth and that part of WA has its own generators and independent electrical network. Darwin in NT Australia is probably the same situation too. Large expanse's of desert and very sparsely separated areas to the east coast.
