The land of the Aussies. Although today Australia is just one big country, sometimes it is considered a whole continent, which makes sense if you think of how complex and diverse its Aboriginal population was.
Aboriginal Culture in Australia is the longest still surviving culture on the planet, and it is currently fighting for survival, unfortunately.
In Colonial times, Australia was used as a penal colony where convicts were sent to, there were many conflicts with the Aboriginals. Settlers founded cities by the coast and still, nowadays, there aren't many people in its harsh and hot interior.
In modern times, there have been many attempts of 'Reconciliation' with the Native population, as well as a heavy increase in its Immigrant population, making Australia a very diverse and multi-Cultural country, especially in the Big Cities.
This video took me a while to make, it required a lot of research, I just included the most important sources in the final credits, but researching for it was hard since Aboriginals didn't have written history and much of its colonial history was one-sided and sometimes no accurate. Let me know if there's anything you'd like to see that I forgot to include.
For more detail on each of the pre-colonial tribes, I suggest you check this website out aiatsis.gov.au...
