Australia is a country in the southern hemisphere of the globe and is a close neighbour to New Zealand. The country uses the OFLC rating system to rate all Grand Theft Auto releases. The majority of the series is rated MA15+, however some have been given the RC rating. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas was famously re-rated after the Hot Coffee debacle, and the OFLC changed its original MA 15+ rating to RC, although the re-release of San Andreas saw it obtain the the MA 15+ rating again. Australia has a different version of GTA IV than the rest of the world.
RC typically means "refused classification" and means that the game is banned from sale unless a modified version is made. Australia has no "adult" rating in its game classification system, even though the ratings were updated to match the film and television ratings in 2006.
In-game references include references to a war between the United States and Australia, usually from Ammunation commercials.
