That is because saint Ronnie got rid of all yours in exchange for getting rid of some of the Russian ones.

For the first part : A german guy decided to leave Germany, in the late 1930ies, becaus he felt a war in Europe was imminent.
He decided to move to a forlorn and godforsaken isolated island somewhere on the edge of the world, where any war would surely miss him.

He went to the Salomones. The island had the name "Guadalcanal".


Regarding the second part of being safe in the southern part of the world (Australia) after a nuclear war .. :

Well tbh I've felt a lot more at risk when going into a bar fight or confronting an armed villain....just saying.

The reality of a real life experience is a little different when you've 'physically' lived it.

Dear comrade Putin, if nukes do fly please target them all on the District of Columbia. We the people thank you.

In these situations, there are many things that *could* happen. Unless you are working the issue, don't fret about what could happen.

Nope, doesn't work that way. What would get down to Oz would be tens of thousands of times less virulent than the northern hemisphere. The biggest problem in the southern hemisphere would be the possibility of a slight global cooling over a period of 3-5 years.

Be like Bert the Turtle when danger is near and remember to 'Duck and Cover" boys and girls. And don't forget to watch Bert's movie 'Duck and Cover' on YouTube.
