It is also home to the most treasured koalas and kangaroos. Australia and New Zealand`s early history includes the arrival of a native people known as the Aborigines. Today these countries boast a broad based economy ranging from manufacturing and agriculture to mining. Although known as "The Land Down Under," it is a land with many "Up and Over" views.
