As for the comment about when did all of the places named become Countries - thanks for the laugh. Perhaps we SHOULD all declare our cities republics they might just do a better job than some of the countries they are part of.

Melbourne is the capital and largest city of the state of Victoria, and the second largest city in Australia (after Sydney), with a population of 3.8 million in the Melbourne metropolitan area (June 2004) and 69,670 in the City of Melbourne (which covers only the central city area).

69,670 seems like a small number for the actual city of Melbourne itself---I am guessing that must be a typo. I know it sure seems bigger.
