Only one major cyclone has hit Darwin in the past century, and that is Cyclone Tracy, on Christmas Day, 1974. Darwin's position in the Top End puts it in the path of numerous cyclones which may form to the north, east or west of the city, but none has caused anywhere near the devastation that Tracy did.
Approximately 206 tropical cyclones have hit Australia in the last 100 years.

There have been several cyclones that have affected South Asia in the last two years, but the exact number can vary based on specific definitions and criteria for what qualifies as a cyclone. Some notable cyclones include Cyclone Amphan in 2020 and Cyclone Yaas in 2021, among others.
Although there are a number of details which Darwin got wrong; he misclassified some animals and his beliefs about inherited characteristics (he thought mixing of blood was somehow responsible for how offspring resemble their parents) were, frankly, pretty silly, Darwin's major theories on natural selection and how species change have been repeatedly confirmed by discoveries in physics, biology and genetics over the last 150 years. This is largely because Darwin developed his theory over many years and after long observation of the natural world.
