      To my native Emustani people, we refer to it as the Great Emu Genocide of 1936. It was the turning point in Emustani-Australian relations, and has led to widespread calls for independent sovereignty from Australia in form of The Emustani Republic. The Emustani have their own flag, and claim sovereignty to the entirey of Australia. Our intent is to liberate our homeland and send all humans occupying our homeland to where they first came from, Australia-Hungary.
