      Notorious? Poor Ned was a working-class lad of an oppressed minority that got pushed too far by corrupt colonial troopers. He stood up against oppression and British imperialism, and as such, was one of the first 'Australian' heroes.

      I'd make a fallout game in Australia inspired by the film "On the Beach" a famous film and book which kinda helped invent the post apocalyptic genre. In it the world has a nuclear war and Australia is left untouched because nobody cares about the southern hemisphere. I'd make an Australian Fallout therefore like Mad Max 1 rather then 3 and 4, where there's still a pre-war government and infrastructure but it's all collapsed and struggling to fight against the raiders and mutants that keep attacking them when they don't have fuel for their vehicles or money to pay the police.

    • @Nerdnumberone
      @Nerdnumberone 7 років тому +77

      Yeah, whenever you talk about currency from a past era, you need to mention a rough sum adjusted for inflation. I have a rough translation of 110 pounds modern pounds to a modern pound, so 9,570 pounds now for 87 pounds then, or ~$12,000, though when you are talking about inflation from this far out, it is hard to make a complete comparison. The relative costs of different products vary wildly over time so what you compare it to is hard to manage (not to mention regional variations in price). I'd probably put error bars on the order of thousands. Still, it is a crapload of money for a poor, starving, farmer.

    • @Healermain15
      @Healermain15 7 років тому +29

      True, but it helps to put it into perspective of just HOW much money it is. Like, is 87 dollars equivalent to several hundred euro's? Several thousands? tens of thousands?
      It also helps understand other characters when they interact with that amount of money. When someone lights their cigar with 100 dollar bills in current money, they're a rich showoff. When they do it in old timey money, they're a lunatic who literally burns entire fortunes.

    • @thetrashmaster1352
      @thetrashmaster1352 7 років тому +17

      Yeah 87 pounds back then would be somewhere around $3000.00 now but remember there was no minimum wage back then and products would cost differently. for example, there would have been way more people cutting down trees so the amount of money he would have got from a tree would probably only be something like 50 pence. It's all about supply and demand.

      1800s Australia is basically pockets of settlement around a harsh and isolated frontier. Indigenous society was always hunter/gatherer, so basically Ned Kelly's life takes place during the first period of notably rapid growth in Australian society. It's an interesting period of Australian history because many of the foundations of the future country are laid down, and it is a time of growing pains to say the least.
      The Ned Kelly story resonates with Australians for many many reasons, but chiefly he is a figure that shows the tension between the hard legacy of convict transportation, and the nation it was aspiring to become.

    3. The less money a family has, the more children they will have.

    • @TheBespectacledN00b
      @TheBespectacledN00b 7 років тому +7

      xenoblad With 1 I would argue that it's overuse of the death penalty. During this period n British the use of hanging for non-violent crimes was being phased out. In fact, it had already come down from the era of the "Bloody Code" of the Georgian and Regency periods where 200+ crimes were punishable by death (including several types of theft, impersonating a Chelsea pensioner, buggery, arson and rape). The biggest example would be transport to Australia in the first place. That said, even into the post war era killing a police officer, murder by shooting and killing someone during an armed robbery guaranteed a death sentence. Some conservative pundits argued once hanging was effectively abolished in Britain in the 1960s that the armed robbery rate whether through the roof (although the stagflation of the 1970s and the fact wages were paid in cash at have had something to do with it) as the deterrent factor had been removed.
      That said, you do have a reasonable point about the need for some form of safety net for the poor.
