Melbourne. You'll find Melbourne in Australia in the state of Victoria.

But you'll also find Melbourne in the United States in Arkansas, Iowa, Florida (yes, there's also Melbourne Beach near Florida's Melbourne) and Kentucky.

In the United Kingdom you'll find Melblurne in Derbyshire in the English East Midlands and in Yorkshire in East Riding. There's also Melbourn (without a final "e") in Cambridgeshire.

In Canada, there's Melbourne in Nova Scotia.

And there's Mount Melbourne in Antarctica.

There may be other Melbournes in the world.

So don't confuse Melbourne in Australia with the other Melbournes when you plan to visit the Australian city.
