Australia has some really interesting history once you delve further into it. On the outside it is just convicts being sent here but if you look further these convicts were eventually given freedom and they were the very people that started this nation, got careers in Australia some of them were very smart. Their stories are very interesting instead we're diluted by aboriginals everywhere in history in High School that is all we're ever taught about how we "genocided" the abos I'm fucking sick of it Australia has a rich history and the kids of tomorrow deserve to be taught about it.

strangely good post

When the Dutch first explored Australia Janszoon wrote in his journal that it was a FUCKING wasteland. They made contact with the aboriginals and that escalated very quickly into a full blown conflict. After that it it took about 150 years until the Brits thought it was a good idea to take a look at it again.

Really interesting history

You're just butthurt that the Dutch didn't settle it you would have failed with Australia anyway you would have let abos overrun you eventually kek.

Gold Rush / Ned Kelly
Colonial Expansion
World Wars

A lot is the small history, like how towns grew and the things that shaped them.
For instance, Victoria was basically built from gold mining money.
