It is not known who, specifically, decided to build the Eureka Stockade. It is regarded as having been a collaborative effort by the miners, led by Peter Lalor.

The Eureka Stockade was not about finding gold. The Eureka Stockade was an event which occurred in Ballarat, Victoria, during the early years of the Australian goldrush. In the event, the gold miners rebelled against the miner's licence, setting up a stockade from which they planned to make their stand against further licence arrests or other unreasonable displays of authority. Early in the morning on Sunday, 3 December 1854, 276 police and military personnel and several civilians stormed the stockade. It's unknown which side fired first, but ultimately 22 diggers and 5 troopers died in the battle that followed.
Peter Lalor, leader of the Eureka Rebelln, did not actually make any changes in the Eureka stockade. He led the miners to stand up for their rights, but these rights were still not recognised for some time after the rebellion. Due to the deplorable conditions on the goldfields, and the lack of miners' rights and representation in government, Lalor was unofficially "elected" on 30 November 1854 to be a more militant leader and voice for the diggers. Lalor led the rebellion that later became known as the Eureka Stockade. During the battle, 22 diggers and 5 troopers died. Despite its apparent failure, though, the Eureka Stockade gained the attention of the Government. A Commission of Enquiry followed and changes were made. These included abolishing the monthly gold licences, which were replaced by a much more affordable annual miner's licence. There were fewer troopers on the goldfields, and intrusive spot-checks ceased. Legislative Council was expanded to allow representation to the major goldfields. Peter Lalor and another representative, John Basson Humffray, were elected for Ballarat. Later, Lalor was elected Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Victoria. For these reasons, the Eureka Stockade is regarded by many as the birthplace of Australian Democracy.
The Ureka Stockade was a fortification located in California that played a role in the 1850s during the conflict between local settlers and Native American tribes. Built as a defensive structure by settlers, it was later abandoned and dismantled in the late 19th century.
The Eureka Stockade was the gold miners' rebellion held in Ballarat, Victoria. On 1 December 1854, some of the miners built a wooden barricade, or stockade, from which they planned to defend themselves against licence hunts and arrests or other incursions by the authorities. At 3:00am on Sunday, 3 December 1854, 276 police and military personnel and several civilians stormed the stockade.

Ballarat is known for being the place where the Eureka Stockade took place. This was a major rebellion by the miners against the miner's licence and the frequent licence checks which took place, during which many people were arrested, as the licence fees were excessive and hard for most diggers to pay.In the event known as the Eureka Stockade, the miners constructed a wooden barricade, a rather flimsy stockade from which they planned to make their stand against further licence arrests or other unreasonable displays of authority. Early in the morning on Sunday, 3 December 1854, 276 police and military personnel and several civilians stormed the stockade. It's unknown which side fired first, but ultimately 22 diggers and 5 troopers died in the battle that followed.
The miners needed a symbol to show their protest at not having a voice, not being recognised with equal rights. The man who led the Eureka Stockade, Peter Lalor, declared, "We swear by the Southern Cross to stand truly by each other and fight to defend our rights and liberties." The Southern Cross symbolises Australia, which is why it was incorporated into an independent flag (and later also used on the new Australian flag).

The Eureka Stockade is regarded as the birthplace of democracy in Australia. It marked a turning point on the Australian goldfields because it led to the miners gaining government representation, and thus an improvement in their working conditions. In the Eureka Stockade rebellion, the gold miners stood up against the miner's licence, which cost a monthly fee of 30 shillings and allowed the holder to work a tiny 3.6 metre square "claim". Licences had to be paid whether or not a digger found any gold. There were frequent licence hunts, during which the miners were ordered to produce proof of their licences, and this increased the sense of unrest. In November 1854, the miners burned their licences in a mass display of resistance against the laws which controlled the miners. Following a widespread licence hunt the following day, on November 30, Irish immigrant and goldminer Peter Lalor was chosen to lead the rebellion. On December 1, the miners began to construct a wooden barricade, a rather flimsy stockade from which they planned to make their stand against further licence arrests or other unreasonable displays of authority. Early in the morning on Sunday, 3 December 1854, 276 police and military personnel and several civilians stormed the stockade. It's unknown which side fired first, but ultimately 22 diggers and 5 troopers died in the battle that followed. Although the Eureka rebellion itself failed in what it set out to do, it gained the attention of the Government. Following a Commission of Enquiry, changes were put in place. These included abolishing the monthly gold licences, which were replaced by an affordable annual miner's licence. The numbers of troopers were reduced significantly, and Legislative Council was expanded to allow representation to the major goldfields.
