It comes down to money and the distance we are from others in the end...how can we get the Prime Minister addicted to the internet so that he will spend lots on infrastructure?

New Australian Monopoly

Monopoly has to be the most popular board game ever because nearly everyone has at least one version of Monopoly or more. Parker Brothers have now released a new Australian version of Monopoly and there was voting for which places in Australia would get a place. Each state has a winner or two so check it out and see what you think.

As cool as it is to have a new Australian version, it is after all the same game so it doesn't really matter which board you play on.
