Why more than half of Australia descended from Europeans?
that question is easy. the europeans 'founded Australia' well the aboriginals were here first but then because the aboriginals hadn't actually claimed the land captain cook came along with his European buddies and claimed it. there are some pirks and disadvantages of this one perk is that now Australia is civilised and is a multi cultural country a dis advantage is that the aboriginals get special treatment by the government but i guess that is okay. but that's my opinion. the europeans brought their people and then the families started taht's why most of australians are europeans.
