Australia, is Australia's longest river. At 2,508
kilometres, the Murray rises in the Australian
Alps, draining the western side of Australia's
highest mountains and, for most of its
length, meanders across Australia's inland
plains, forming the border between the
states of New South Wales and Victoria as it
flows to the northwest, before turning south
for its final 500 kilometres or so into South
Australia, reaching the ocean at Lake
Alexandrina.

Australia

and a spiritual relation to the land
Yellow: Represents the Sun, the giver of life and
protector
