Australia's Inland Sea/Lake
■■■■■
Many people remember Australia as having a large, permanent, central inland sea or a significant lake system, which contradicts its actual arid interior.
●
What People Remember
People recall a prominent, always-present large body of water in the central desert regions of Australia.
◉
What's Actually True
While Australia has Lake Eyre, it is an ephemeral salt lake that is usually dry and only fills completely during periods of exceptional rainfall, not a permanent inland sea.
