No, Austria has provinces. Most countries have provinces and territories instead of states. A state implies that the area was at least at one point sovereign, and still in some way maintain their autonomy, as in the U.S. That's why I asked that question, I wasn't sure how it worked in Australia.

The most beautiful state? ALL of them offer something different, from Alpine regions to cool temperate rainforests to beautiful deserts to tropical beaches.
And it's big, wide open with loads of space.
My favourite state is my home state "New South Wales".
Of which Sydney is the capital city. We have some of the best beaches (bar some Queensland ones), most beautiful mountain ranges, stunning Alpine regions, sub-tropical rain forests, deserts and a wonderful climate.
