Blackbirding is the practice of enslaving people onto ships, usually through the use of deception and bribery, especially the inhabitants from the South Pacific Islands, and then transporting them to the sugar cane and cotton plantations, particularly in Queensland, Australia, to work as labourers.

This dreadful practice occurred predominantly between the 1860’s and 1904. The
The only time Australia has come under direct attack from another country, was when Japan bombed Darwin and sunk a number of ships in Sydney, during World War 2. The question then has to be asked, why Australia has been involved in so many conflicts. A number of recent conflicts in this century come to mind, they include, The Boer War, World War One, World War Two and The Vietnam War. By far the conflict that drew the most outrage from Australian citizens was the Vietnam War. Australia has been drawn

The white Australia policy began in the 1850’s in attempt to create a one-race country, Letting Chinese and Pacific Island foreigners was good at the time but it came back around to bite them in the bum. The white Australia policy all began when Australia’s British Prisoners were rapidly declining and therefore Australians were forced to import the labor needed to work in its mines. So instead of importing from Europe they began to import from countries like China and the Pacific Islands. Australians
The Poetry of Judith Wright Abstract This report discusses the influences of Australia as well as the universal impact on the poetry of Judith Wright. It contains an evaluation of both the techniques and the "plot" behind the poems "Remittance Man, "South of My Days" and "Eve to her Daughters" as well as a comparison between the three poems.

Now, more than 22% of the world’s population are Muslims, and it is expected that the Muslim population will grow at the rate of 73% in 35 years.

first settlers arrived in Australia 35,000 years ago during the great ice age. The sea levels lowered between Indonesia and New Guinea and created a land bridge that would allow nomadic tribes to cross from Southeast Asia. Like many other humans of that era they were hunters and gatherers and traveled from place to place in search of new game. Thousands of years after these drifters arrived; the glaciers thawed and raised the seas once again, which kept the people of Australia permanently there.
