Brisbane is the capital city of the state of Queensland, Australia. With a population of 1,800,000, it is the third-largest Australian city. The Brisbane River runs through the city, dividing it into the "Northside" and "Southside" in local idiom.
The city has a relatively dry climate, similar to that of Sydney. It is specifically a humid climate with hot and rainy summers and mild and dry winters. The average annual temperature is around 23 celcius[1]. As with the rest of the country, the majority of residents are Protestant however fewer than 20% regularly attend church and almost 36% profess no religious affiliation.[2]
