Australia, as a landmass, has been in its current location for millions of years, having separated from the supercontinent Gondwana around 85 million years ago. However, the first humans arrived approximately 65,000 years ago, with Aboriginal Australians establishing diverse cultures across the continent. European exploration began in the 17th century, leading to British colonization in 1788. Thus, while the continent's geological position is ancient, human presence and colonization are much more recent events.
