First Colony 1770s – British set up 1st colony in Australia as penal colony for convicts because of overcrowding in English jails. More than 150,000 prisoners were sent over the next several decades. Why? Due to its remote location far away from Britain

Other People in Australia 1850s - Gold Rush brought many people. (ex. Chinese) After WWII many Europeans came to Australia. They came from Italy, Yugoslavia, Greece, Germany. 1970s - people fleeing Vietnam War also came to Australia

Aborigines Today Since arrival of Europeans, Aborigines have suffered a great deal People forced off land Tens of thousands died b/c of European diseases such as smallpox Many forced to work on sheep stations They were demanded to adopt European culture Those who fought lost b/c of British weapons (guns) 200,000 live in Australia now, they have been fighting for their rights, and preserving their culture.
