The most southern city in the world is in Australia

The answer is False.

Explanation

This title is contested between Ushuaia (Argentina) and Puerto Williams (Chile) depending on the definition of a city. Puerto Williams is the most southern one and was granted city status in 2019 with a population of roughly 2000-3000, but Ushuaia is widely recognized as the southernmost city due to its significantly larger population of roughly 82,000–90,000 and its status as a major commercial and tourist hub.
