While watching the film "Australia" the other day, where they translated "Outback" as "el interior", I wondered if there's a more accurate translation for it. "el interior" may refer to any country, whereas "outback" is pretty much exclusive for Australia.
Any ideas? |

I saw that movie the other day too. I have never heard a translation for it, but you're right that Outback is understood to be strictly Australia. Or the steak house
