History

According to Grampa, the Simpson's ancestors were kicked out of Australia.[1]

The Simpsons visit Australia after Bart makes a prank call asking what way the water goes. Bart then leaves the phone off the hook, raking up a huge bill for them, as he made a reverse call. The guy sues him, and Bart has to travel to a court in Australia. He ends up letting Bart Junior (a bullfrog) free and this causes a bullfrog infestation.[2]

Bart also sent a prank call here after he got his new cell phone, which belonged to actor Denis Leary.[3]

When Mr. Burns was depressed over Bobo, Smithers arranged for the Australian population to join hands and spell out "Monty Burns" with candles.[4]

The judges at the Monkey Olympics figure-skating event include an Australian, as well as an Italian, Hungarian and Frenchman.[5]

When Lisa fails to show up to her Azerbaijan seat at the Model U.N. Club, Australia's and Belarus's seats can be seen.[6]

Corporal punishment

In Australia, corporal punishment is a legal form of punishment, the most popular of which is "the boot". It is so popular that it is depicted on the Australian flag.[2]
