lol, are you looking at the same map that tourists look at?


No, the Australia 1:5000000 General Reference Map Third Edition.

Lots of phantom rivers.

Big water pipe schemes have been done before. Notably in 1905, the Perth to
Kalgoorlie pipe system by Charles Yelverton O'Connor. O'Connor and his pipe
system got a fair bit of criticism- but it was completed and it works.

A big water scheme, then there is the Snowy, but that is about it.
Minor distances really.
