  2. The native population, estimated at three hundred fifty thousand people to the settlement was reduced significantly in the next hundred fifty years, due to infectious diseases with the resettlement and cultural disintegration which forced the colonists in their progress.

  4. A gold rush began in Australia at the beginning of the 1850s. The rebellion known as Eureka Stockades 1854 was an early expression of nationalist sentiments: The flag used to represent this rebellion was seen as a serious alternative for the Australian flag.

  14. hello teacher Iam diego s1b: Australia (officially, in English, Commonwealth of Australia ': Commonwealth of Australia) is a country located in the southern hemisphere, which occupies the entire mainland of Oceania, the smallest continent of the world, apart from some islands in the Pacific Ocean , Indian and Antarctic. The countries closest to Australia are Indonesia, East Timor and Papua New Guinea to the north, the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and the French dependency of New Caledonia to the northeast and southeast New Zealand. Australia is the sixth largest country in the world, after Brazil.

    Its capital, Canberra, is located in the Australian Capital Territory. The population in 2006 was about 20.6 million inhabitants, mainly concentrated in large coastal cities: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide.

    The Australian continent has been inhabited for more than forty-two thousand years by Indigenous Australians. After sporadic visits by fishermen from northern and European explorers and traders began in the seventeenth century, the eastern half of the continent was claimed by England in 1770 and in 1788 established a penal colony in New South Wales. Due to population growth and the exploration of new areas during the nineteenth century were successful five other colonies.

    On March 25, 1954, the six colonies were formed federation the Commonwealth of Australia. Since the institution has maintained a liberal democratic political system and has remained a monarchy within the British Commonwealth of Nations.

    In the conventional division into continents used by speakers of Castilian, Australia is part of Oceania, which also includes the Pacific islands. By contrast, English speakers tend to speak of the "continent of Australia." In fact, from a geological point of view, Australia, and not the region of Oceania is the continent. New Zealand and other islands do not form a continent of Australia but to be associated with this proximity. Even so, it must be remembered that in geology, "continent" has a different concept (under the geological point of view India is a continent separated from Asia for example).1b
