South Australia, Administrative division in southern Australia.
South Australia encompasses 984,321 square kilometers of land, containing fertile coastal regions, Mediterranean wine country, and vast expanses of desert outback territory.
The region was established in 1836 as a planned British province without convict settlements, marking a departure from other Australian colonial territories.
The state capital Adelaide maintains numerous theaters, museums, and performance venues, hosting events like the Adelaide Festival throughout the calendar year.
South Australia operates under a parliamentary system with local government areas managing community services across different regions of the administrative division.
The territory produced 80 percent of Australian premium wines, with major cultivation centers in Barossa Valley, Clare Valley, and McLaren Vale.
