Sydney, Melbourne, Newcastle, Gold Coast, Brisbane, Darwin, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Hobart, Cairns, Townsville & the Central Coast??? Those are the largest cities, but others like Toowoomba, Sunshine Coast, Geelong, Bendigo & Wollongong, which may have a larger population, they are very less likely to be targets. I think Australia would be able to hold together, since 1788 there has been no civil wars (except if you count the Eureka Stockade), there have been no major disasters, and we haven't been invaded once (Although, Japan had a serious think about it). Plus, the USA must protect us from nuclear attacks. Also, if we had enough time before we were hit, we would easily be able to develop nukes with the help of the U.K & U.S.A. Numerous times in History Australia has looked into developing WMD's, and if you look deep enough off the Coast of Melbourne, Brisbane & Sydney, you'd find 21,000 tons of Chemical Weapons. This is why I believe Australia would survive.
