Answer: Australia's original name was New Holland, given by the Dutch, who found the land in the early 1600s. It was the English explorer and cartographer Matthew Flinders who suggested and popularized the name we use today. Flinders was the first to circumnavigate the continent in 1803, and used the name "Australia" to describe the continent on a hand-drawn map in 1804. The name Australia was officially adopted in 1817, replacing "New Holland," an English translation of the Dutch name provided by Abel Tasman in 1643.

The world’s passports can be grouped into just four colors: red, blue, green, and black. Blue, the current choice of the U.S. government, is the most popular, preferred by 83 nations. Red is second on the list with 65 countries, followed by green and black with 44 and 7 countries, respectively. Passport cover colors don’t always stay the same. The U.S. passport has actually been all four at some point in its history. America’s first modern-style passport, issued in 1926 was red. Blue was introduced in 1976 in honor of the country’s bicentennial.
