Australia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is both a name for the world's smallest continent, and the country that is comprised of said continent, the island of Tasmania, and a number of smaller islands around it. Neighbouring countries include Indonesia, East Timor and Papua New Guinea to the north; the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and New Caledonia to the north-east; and New Zealand to the south-east. During the Third Tiberium War it was a major theater of that conflict, eventually falling under the control of the Brotherhood of Nod.
