Melbourne was the richest city in the world in 1880s because of Gold. Also Australia was the world's largest wool producer that made the country very wealthy in 1800s and 1900s.

Captain Cook should be remembered more widely than just Australia. His discoveries advanced mathematics, navigation, science and proved that the earth did indeed orbit the sun.
Did you know that Australia has a fascinating history documentary about the First Fleet, which details the arrival of the first British convicts in 1788? This event marked the beginning of European settlement and had a profound impact on the nation’s development!
good video but australia's gold rush started in ballarat in victoria in 1851 because of 2 people. yes edward hargraves did discover gold in new south wales, but it REALLY started in ballarat when 2 rich men found gold in a creek near ballarat in a nearby mountain and thousands of people flocked to ballarat and surrounding areas to mine for gold.
Dear @obroski_burgers, have you never heard of Ophir, Hill End, Sofala, Turon River and all the other major gold rush sites near Bathurst, NSW and all the others elsewhere in NSW? I repeat: major gold rush sites. First gold found 1823, with major finds and resulting rushes starting 1851. Your comment trivialises the extent of the gold finds in NSW, ignores the NSW major gold rushes and says that “[A]ustralia’s gold rush [singular] started in [B]allarat in [V]ictoria. As @chrisbuesnell3428 said: “incorrect” and I say misleading and likely uninformed. Do some research. Please.
Very insightful and informative video. It's truly amazing how Australia has evolved and emerged over time experiencing a bloodbath battle between natives and colonial wars. The discovery of the gold deposit along the South was the birth of wealth and development. It's a vast land mass and still, most of it is inhabited due to strict migration policies.
Australia’s history is rich with stories of exploration and settlement, with the 1788 arrival of the First Fleet marking a significant turning point.

No mention of tribal life in this video. The fact is that the native peoples practiced cannibalism, sodomy, & their women (lubras) were assaulted by their males as were the children. Many children never reached adulthood due to starvation & being eaten by tribal members. Numerous lubras took up with Europeans, living with them, as they received reasonable treatment & food.

@@gandharaorganicfoods Listen, I don’t know if that’s true or not, but what I’m talking about was the German empire (Second Reich, 1871-1918), not Nazi Germany/Greater German Reich (Third Reich, 1933-1945). Those are two completely different empires that so happens within the same country which is Germany, just two different times. And no, the Germans didn’t rule the world from 1871-1918, not even close. Here are the biggest empires that happens within the start of the 20th century (1900s): 1. United Kingdom of Great Britain & Ireland, 2. Russian Empire [because they have Siberia within Asia], 3. Third French Republic [France], 4. German Empire. As you can see, the German empire is basically the underdogs in this story and the two biggest empires that had the most overseas colonies were the British & the French with the continents of Africa & Asia. Also, Australia belonging to the domain of the United Kingdom & French Guiana in South America belonging to France since the 1700s. German Empire only has a few colonies in Africa, plenty of Pacific Islands, and a city of Qingdao/Tsingtao within the Shandong Province of China, and also a concession which is basically they own a street within the city of Tianjin (next to the city of Beijing btw) after China was beaten by the European powers like UK, France, Germany, United States, etc. during the Boxer Rebellion (1899-1901) which eight nations get a street as a concession within Tianjin because of the rebellion that is Russia, Britain, Japan, Germany, France, America, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. So, feel free to look it up for yourself to learn more, this is just a general overview of what do I knew about this topic, the rest you have to look it up to find out more. I hope it helps.
Indigenous habitants get 2 short mentions here as if they didn't matter !!!! and the europeans "retaliated" against the locals aggression at having THEIR land stolen... Wow !
enviable??? you say we have some of the highest payrates but we also have some of the highest taxes in the world after my pay n taxes i then goto wollies n pay tax on the food my kids NEED, then theres land water electricity n gas tax, our government literally taxes everything so those “enviable” pays are really no better then anywhere else
It's all relative though isn't it. There are a lot of expenses that people pay for unnecessarily and think that they should be able to have it all and then get grumpy when they can't. Things people don't actually need, but insist on paying for because they don't want their families to be seen as unsuccessful. 1. Mobile phone contracts for personal use. 2. Streaming services, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Stan etc. 3. Tobacco and alcohol. 4. Internet services. That's just a start. $50 to $60 bucks a week, at least and probably much, much more. Of course it depends on where a person actually lives as to whether some expenses are higher or lower. If someone lives in a disaster prone area, subject to flooding or in a bushfire prone area, then no matter how frugal they are their insurance premiums are out of reach. The highest Tax Rate in Australia is 45% and the minimum wage rate is AUD $24.10 per hour. The highest tax rate in the USA is 37% with minimum wage rate of AUD$10.87. The highest tax rate in the UK is 45%. with a minimum wage rate of AUD$22.46. I know where I'd much rather live, with Medicare, Family Tax Benefit and those other things that my own actual 32% tax rate pays for.
It's not so much the taxes, which are high but if we want services they have to be paid for. Biggest problem for us is the high profit margins of large companies & the massive salaries for directors, which drive up our cost of living. Privatising which we were told would make things more efficient & cheaper, aren't any more efficient & are way more expensive.
@@Doogsa-dl8sc Really? My dad was a chippie and so was his. I left school in Year 11 and lucked into getting a job in a bank on a sh*t salary. I worked hard and got a job in Head Office Then I went into IT, without any qualifications, but they saw that I had drive and wanted to get somewhere. I did shift work and got paid extra for that. It caused me medical problems and I ended up in hospital and I was made redundant and was in the local Medicare office every other week with all the doctor's bills I had. One day I saw a sign in the Medicare window "Situation Vacant", applied for it and got it. Nobody "gave" me anything. I started down, got up, got knocked down again and I got up again.
No country has good life in this world Someone can gain a good life by himself.Nobody can do the others.Many people are suffering in developed countries too.Thanks.
This sounds like a very biased video. You framed each conflict between the aboriginals and colonialists as being started by the aboriginals and the colonialists just ‘had to respond’ but unfortunately ‘indiscriminately’
@@Vorbcomment has to be made by an Australian. 200 years ago the world had very little progress. Advancements in the way of inventions were taken from all over the world. Where rocks were round the wheel was invented. Australia done nothing really to ad to the world's Advancement. Australia had mining which means you brought your Advancement from other countries inventions and ideas after kicking abos of there land taking the stolen resources from stolen land and selling it to buy other countries ideas. This is why the lucky country was quoted" he meant Australians are to dumb for inventions or Advancements, lucky are they have land with resources to sell. That is what I meant by the comment I can see your Australian. Australians are known world wide as not so smart, don't try making out your smart and they are dumb.
Lol whatever, if you look into the deep history they massacred thousands, enslaved many, poisoned their water supplies as well as driving them of cliffs with horses just to name a few things they did. The majority of colonialists were anything but kind to them.
Exactly Carpentry Bay was Carpentaria bay, where the Portuguese repaired ships. The Japanese word for thank you is Origato from Obrigado the first white man in Japan was a Portuguese Jesuit.
I Wonder why settlers decided to occupy the eastern part of the country which is much further from Europe. And how they managed to take such long and dangerous trips 400 years ago, with no engines, no GPS. How to find the way?
Which no Australian knew about until the Americans kept reminding us . And so what if we shot a lot of animals is not a war again that's the americanisms
It wasn't the early settlers who brought the horror, it was British soldiers, British genocide policies. Same elites, same policies as now except it's global depopulation.
Why do all these documentaries have like 1 minute on the thousands of years of history of the indigenous people and then from minute 2 it has something like "and then the Europeans arrived and this is where the real history starts". Its stupid
What's stupid is your brainless comment. The aborigines didn't record history, so, what's to report? Nobody knows what happened, so, what, exactly, is there to say? Stop trying to stir up racial trouble dude!
Because First Nations history is oral tradition which was disrupted by the European settlers. So, sadly, we are picking up the piecees of First Nation history and trying to put it back together, which is harder to do than it sounds given how the society has treated Indigenous people
Unfortunately. This video failed to let the world know. The home less has grown by more then 17% since 2021. Cost of living has gotten out of control. Rent has increased by more then 35% since 2022. So although this video may tell of AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺. For many. The cost of living with homeless increasing and those seeking medicle attention. We have now become one of the most expensive and hardest countries to live in.
The cost of living has increased Worldwide,not only Australia. If i need to see a Doctor,the cost is nothing. If i get sick and end up in hospital,it costs me nothing.I get an xray or ultrasound the cost is nothing.If i get cancer and need chemo,the cost is nothing.If i lose my job,centerlink pays so that i may eat and have a roof over my head.I will even get paid rent assistance to help further. If things are tough, even my medication is subsidised. I too am an Aussie and i thank my lucky stars, every fucking day being born here.
This is about the history of Australia. It was not it's responsibility, nor intention, to address your complaints. Odd that you would find that unfortunate.
Rubbish if we had done that our demographic would be completely different and we would not be the minority we are now and dealing with the problems we face now. Go spout your socialist trash talk somewhere else.
When you can't talk to each other there's other ways of sending messages. Out right slaughter is one. Not saying I agree with utterly obliterating a technologically inferior peoples is a good way of sending a message. It is just how the world was in those times, despite how the English Isles wanted to behave and represent themselves.
Portuguese discovered Australia, just never claimed it. We navigated most of the known world. Some of the greatest sailors of the old world. Most credit goes to the Dutch and English
The Indonesians were trading with Australian aboriginals well before the Portuguese visited, and the Australian aboriginals found it first, about 65,000 years ago.
Not sure my friend. To my knowledge, there was a map found. Which was made by a Portuguese cartographer. Dated before the Dutch found it. Also several years ago. I remember watching a documentary. They were looking for a ship made of mahogany that went aground on a sandy shore. This individual was hoping to find it. It would prove that the Portuguese where there before the Dutch. It was said, that only Portuguese had built some ships out of mahogany at this time. 🤷♂️ As for the Sir who pointed out. The Aboriginal people and the Indonesian’s were trading a long time before the Portuguese got there. I’m sure they did. Thats also like saying no one discovered America. It was in reference to what we perceive to be in those times, the modern world.
I would like to also add this. After watching all 11 seasons of Oak Island. It is pretty much considered that Portuguese Templars where in North America. Sometime around 1200-1300, well before Christopher Columbus. I’m not stating they discovered America. Vikings were there before that. I’m sure someone else before then.
Australia is still ruling with a calonial atitude. It has so much to learn to change their tolerance towards immigrants and its native people. I like their atitude of leving your violent political behaviors from where you came.
Ok the Americans have 6 million Indians and give them a $20 billion a year with an overall population of 350 million. We have a population of 25 million and give 40 billion dollars to $500,000 indigenous people so don't say we're not looking after them . As for immigrants we are full there is no water and their behaving like animals so you can understand people not wanting anymore of them
Settler's? Mate the settlers didn't take over anything the British didn't even protect settlers from aboriginals settlers had to defend themselves from aboriginals (who by the way aren't so innocent like the media pans it out to be) all I'm saying is learn the truth about aboriginal history and settler history Aus isn't a white vs Asian history it's a English vs everyone else
The Nation state of Australia begins with Colonisation. Aborigonal groups call themselves first nations so they technally arn't Australia they are apart of what ever mob they belong too. We call Native Americans, Americans but i bet if you asked a Comanche if they were Americans while the Americas were being colonised they most likley say they arn't American
@@Aeslyth there isn't haha they had 10s of thousands of years here and pretty much made 0 innovation within their society so no books or writings (no clear history just made up lore)
Well the white Aborigines won't let us discover Australian Aboriginal history because they're scared of losing all the money so they invent culture like dot paintings and carved lizards
You do realise aboriginals aren't even black right? So using white Australia wouldn't change anything 🤣💀White people discovered and created Aus get over it
He did actually, the ancestors of the Aboriginal people inhabiting Australia migrated from Asia as stated. They then spread out and proceeded to do nothing for the next 40000+ years, the end.
Great quality,...there's just one thing. I'm not indigenous or anything, but I find your history quite friendly to the settlers. "They kidnapped to communicate" or "misunderstandings led to violence". Similar to the Camanche tribes in Texas in North America. The settlers laid claim upon arrival to parcels of land without any consultation, while the indigenous people prided them selves on sharing the land. They were forcibly removed from their land, and they were conquered, I don't think this is a misunderstanding as you keep putting it. Intentions of the British with this culture are further seen through evidence of slavery and crime against the native population. And most of all, you see the stolen generation later on. All that is to show their intentions and views of the native population. It was never friendly or meant to be that way. Just like they fought to rip what became the United States apart the British ripped that native populous, you just might want to do that point justice as you seem to portray it in a more biased light.
No slavery in Australia except for the convicts who were forced into slave labor and that’s a stretch.. The British were at least better then the Spanish Dutch and Portuguese.. I agree that no one can “own” land but the aborigines had fierce territorial boundaries and if went into another tribe’s territory without being invited u were killed if caught
@@damiennelson275 yes there was, look into it. Specifically called slave labour. They already looked down upon black people, using them for slave labour or “paying wages” they’ll never receive, wouldn’t make the British think twice.
@@theoriginal-pk3089 The British even treated the new settlers as slaves and convicts. The Governments did set up missions where Aboriginals where provided peace and safety.
@@Lee-cc9jf man that could be interesting. For me it’s hard to comprehend that when they were still considered flora and fauna in law. Once you look into this topic it’s real hard to like British history. But to stop myself from blabbing on. I think the damage to the peoples was sadly too far gone. I think from how the settling happened all the way to the stolen generation, so much damage was done to the indigenous culture that even if say they did a peace home initiative, it would still take a lot more to bring those broken homes back to standard.
Fantastic documentary, but you forgot about the Korean War & several other recent conflicts, all of which have also helped to shape Australian society.
What does the Korean war have to do with the overall economy? Just curious. If by shaped you mean then the migrants who arrived at Australia then most to all countries in the world shaped the country.
Thanks for sharing this information but however there's unlimited history needs to be narrated on simultaneous events occurring daily across Terra Niulius now Australia.TA!
They were all brilliant and brave men for their times, without them Australia would be either colonised by Asian forces or stay as a poor nation with tribal warfare
Where the Aboriginal protesters allowed the last lady who spoke the language in the area to die without recording the language because they were too busy being aggressive
The "Penal Colony" portion of Australia's history has been VASTLY OVER-exaggerated. THE SWAN RIVER COLONY was settled from LONDON AS ... A FREE SETTLER COLONY with .. CONVICTS IMPORTED AFTER 30 YEARS or so SOLEY to overcome an ACCUTE LABOUR SHORTAGE. South Australia (APPARENTLY) never had convicts. OTHER COLONIES .. ALSO .. had huge populations of free-Settlers AND CONVICTS were released soon after arriving EFFECTIVELY.
It's got some bad history the book These Fatal shores gives a good description and in the 20th century after the war they sent every scumbag war criminal from Italy and other fascist countries the Germans have Nazi settlements in both south Australia and Queensland established after the war also others from Balkin countries in the and the Vietnamese the Arabs and now Africans all from war torn shit holes take them back
The Aborigines lived happily before the arrival of Europeans. The aborigines suffered much pain, destruction and death with the arrival of the Europeans.

German Empire only has a few colonies in Africa, plenty of Pacific Islands, and a city of Qingdao/Tsingtao within the Shandong Province of China, and also a concession which is basically they own a street within the city of Tianjin (next to the city of Beijing btw) after China was beaten by the European powers like UK, France, Germany, United States, etc. during the Boxer Rebellion (1899-1901) which eight nations get a street as a concession within Tianjin because of the rebellion that is Russia, Britain, Japan, Germany, France, America, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. So, feel free to look it up for yourself to learn more, this is just a general overview of what do I knew about this topic, the rest you have to look it up to find out more. I hope it helps.

Ned Kelly is my favourite character of this movie
enviable???
you say we have some of the highest payrates but we also have some of the highest taxes in the world after my pay n taxes i then goto wollies n pay tax on the food my kids NEED, then theres land water electricity n gas tax, our government literally taxes everything so those “enviable” pays are really no better then anywhere else
It's all relative though isn't it. There are a lot of expenses that people pay for unnecessarily and think that they should be able to have it all and then get grumpy when they can't. Things people don't actually need, but insist on paying for because they don't want their families to be seen as unsuccessful.
1. Mobile phone contracts for personal use.
2. Streaming services, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Stan etc.
3. Tobacco and alcohol.
4. Internet services.
That's just a start. $50 to $60 bucks a week, at least and probably much, much more.
Of course it depends on where a person actually lives as to whether some expenses are higher or lower. If someone lives in a disaster prone area, subject to flooding or in a bushfire prone area, then no matter how frugal they are their insurance premiums are out of reach.
The highest Tax Rate in Australia is 45% and the minimum wage rate is AUD $24.10 per hour. The highest tax rate in the USA is 37% with minimum wage rate of AUD$10.87.
The highest tax rate in the UK is 45%. with a minimum wage rate of AUD$22.46.
I know where I'd much rather live, with Medicare, Family Tax Benefit and those other things that my own actual 32% tax rate pays for.
It's not so much the taxes, which are high but if we want services they have to be paid for. Biggest problem for us is the high profit margins of large companies & the massive salaries for directors, which drive up our cost of living. Privatising which we were told would make things more efficient & cheaper, aren't any more efficient & are way more expensive.
The majority of us are "the working poor". Nepotism in Australia is the only way people rise above being working poor.
@@Doogsa-dl8sc Really? My dad was a chippie and so was his. I left school in Year 11 and lucked into getting a job in a bank on a sh*t salary. I worked hard and got a job in Head Office Then I went into IT, without any qualifications, but they saw that I had drive and wanted to get somewhere. I did shift work and got paid extra for that. It caused me medical problems and I ended up in hospital and I was made redundant and was in the local Medicare office every other week with all the doctor's bills I had. One day I saw a sign in the Medicare window "Situation Vacant", applied for it and got it. Nobody "gave" me anything. I started down, got up, got knocked down again and I got up again.

I Wonder why settlers decided to occupy the eastern part of the country which is much further from Europe.
And how they managed to take such long and dangerous trips 400 years ago, with no engines, no GPS.
How to find the way?
They had charts, sextants and chronometers so they knew how to navigate the oceans. They could also use the stars and the planets.
The eastern side of the country is where all the rivers are the western side is all deserts
They had the stars
And there was that horrid Emu war we had to fight not less than 100 years ago.
Which no Australian knew about until the Americans kept reminding us . And so what if we shot a lot of animals is not a war again that's the americanisms
This video does not accurately reflect the horror indigenous Australians faced at the hands of European settlers.
It wasn't the early settlers who brought the horror, it was British soldiers, British genocide policies. Same elites, same policies as now except it's global depopulation.
Depends on who the author is
They brought the disease with them intentionally.

True captain Cook actually killed the aboriginal people because they wouldn't give the land to him 😢
Why do all these documentaries have like 1 minute on the thousands of years of history of the indigenous people and then from minute 2 it has something like "and then the Europeans arrived and this is where the real history starts". Its stupid
What's stupid is your brainless comment. The aborigines didn't record history, so, what's to report? Nobody knows what happened, so, what, exactly, is there to say? Stop trying to stir up racial trouble dude!
Because First Nations history is oral tradition which was disrupted by the European settlers. So, sadly, we are picking up the piecees of First Nation history and trying to put it back together, which is harder to do than it sounds given how the society has treated Indigenous people
Because Europeans created Australia 💀 that's like asking why is majority of Malaysia's history just Asians
I did not hear anything of the Dutch (Boers) or the interaction with the Aboriginals in Austrailia. Is that your forgotan history?

Unfortunately. This video failed to let the world know. The home less has grown by more then 17% since 2021. Cost of living has gotten out of control. Rent has increased by more then 35% since 2022. So although this video may tell of AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺. For many. The cost of living with homeless increasing and those seeking medicle attention. We have now become one of the most expensive and hardest countries to live in.
Exactly. We have such a high immigration rate that we just cannot sustain everyone anymore
The cost of living has increased Worldwide,not only Australia.
If i need to see a Doctor,the cost is nothing. If i get sick and end up in hospital,it costs me nothing.I get an xray or ultrasound the cost is nothing.If i get cancer and need chemo,the cost is nothing.If i lose my job,centerlink pays so that i may eat and have a roof over my head.I will even get paid rent assistance to help further.

When you can't talk to each other there's other ways of sending messages. Out right slaughter is one. Not saying I agree with utterly obliterating a technologically inferior peoples is a good way of sending a message. It is just how the world was in those times, despite how the English Isles wanted to behave and represent themselves.
Best country on Earth… getting to ba a nanny nation now though… might head to Sweden.
Portuguese discovered Australia, just never claimed it. We navigated most of the known world. Some of the greatest sailors of the old world. Most credit goes to the Dutch and English
The Indonesians were trading with Australian aboriginals well before the Portuguese visited,
and the Australian aboriginals found it first, about 65,000 years ago.
Was it flagship Victoria? It's the only ship that completed the circumnavigation of the world
Not sure my friend. To my knowledge, there was a map found. Which was made by a Portuguese cartographer. Dated before the Dutch found it. Also several years ago. I remember watching a documentary. They were looking for a ship made of mahogany that went aground on a sandy shore. This individual was hoping to find it. It would prove that the Portuguese where there before the Dutch. It was said, that only Portuguese had built some ships out of mahogany at this time. 🤷♂️ As for the Sir who pointed out. The Aboriginal people and the Indonesian’s were trading a long time before the Portuguese got there. I’m sure they did. Thats also like saying no one discovered America. It was in reference to what we perceive to be in those times, the modern world.
I would like to also add this. After watching all 11 seasons of Oak Island. It is pretty much considered that Portuguese Templars where in North America. Sometime around 1200-1300, well before Christopher Columbus. I’m not stating they discovered America. Vikings were there before that. I’m sure someone else before then.
Only Portuguese believe this.
Australia is still ruling with a calonial atitude. It has so much to learn to change their tolerance towards immigrants and its native people. I like their atitude of leving your violent political behaviors from where you came.
Ok the Americans have 6 million Indians and give them a $20 billion a year with an overall population of 350 million. We have a population of 25 million and give 40 billion dollars to $500,000 indigenous people so don't say we're not looking after them . As for immigrants we are full there is no water and their behaving like animals so you can understand people not wanting anymore of them
These settlers can go back to Europe if they don't like seeing different races of people.
At least we can spell.

Thank the Dutch and British.
this is the history of white Australia
Aka Australia. It's our word for the land, I'm sure there is history stories for whatever the indigenous called it prior to it being called Australia.
The Nation state of Australia begins with Colonisation. Aborigonal groups call themselves first nations so they technally arn't Australia they are apart of what ever mob they belong too. We call Native Americans, Americans but i bet if you asked a Comanche if they were Americans while the Americas were being colonised they most likley say they arn't American
@@Aeslyth there isn't haha they had 10s of thousands of years here and pretty much made 0 innovation within their society so no books or writings (no clear history just made up lore)

@@James-kv6kbBecause that's complete bs
Great quality,...there's just one thing. I'm not indigenous or anything, but I find your history quite friendly to the settlers. "They kidnapped to communicate" or "misunderstandings led to violence".
Similar to the Camanche tribes in Texas in North America. The settlers laid claim upon arrival to parcels of land without any consultation, while the indigenous people prided them selves on sharing the land. They were forcibly removed from their land, and they were conquered, I don't think this is a misunderstanding as you keep putting it. Intentions of the British with this culture are further seen through evidence of slavery and crime against the native population. And most of all, you see the stolen generation later on.
All that is to show their intentions and views of the native population. It was never friendly or meant to be that way. Just like they fought to rip what became the United States apart the British ripped that native populous, you just might want to do that point justice as you seem to portray it in a more biased light.
No slavery in Australia except for the convicts who were forced into slave labor and that’s a stretch..
The British were at least better then the Spanish Dutch and Portuguese.. I agree that no one can “own” land but the aborigines had fierce territorial boundaries and if went into another tribe’s territory without being invited u were killed if caught
@@damiennelson275 yes there was, look into it. Specifically called slave labour. They already looked down upon black people, using them for slave labour or “paying wages” they’ll never receive, wouldn’t make the British think twice.
@damiennelson275 yes, there was very much slavery, as original pk described, and also with islanders in the plantations up north.
@@theoriginal-pk3089 The British even treated the new settlers as slaves and convicts. The Governments did set up missions where Aboriginals where provided peace and safety.
@@Lee-cc9jf man that could be interesting. For me it’s hard to comprehend that when they were still considered flora and fauna in law. Once you look into this topic it’s real hard to like British history.
But to stop myself from blabbing on. I think the damage to the peoples was sadly too far gone. I think from how the settling happened all the way to the stolen generation, so much damage was done to the indigenous culture that even if say they did a peace home initiative, it would still take a lot more to bring those broken homes back to standard.

CONVICTS IMPORTED AFTER 30 YEARS or so SOLEY to overcome an ACCUTE LABOUR SHORTAGE. South Australia (APPARENTLY) never had convicts. OTHER COLONIES .. ALSO .. had huge populations of free-Settlers AND CONVICTS were released soon after arriving EFFECTIVELY.
