What was the ureka stocade?
*Eureka The Eureka stockade was fought over the miners rights during the Victorian Gold Rush in Australia. The miners were upset at how they were being treated by the few and often corrupt 'officials' who were present at the mines to represent the law. The Violence between not just the miners themselves but the 'law officials' was one of the contributing factors to the stockade, as well as the heavy taxes on the miners who were struggling to make ends meet when there was little gold to be found was also a key factor to the stockade. As a historian you could say that the miners were unhappy at having no vote for who would represent them, but at the same time being taxed, giving us the saying 'No Taxation without representation,' coming from the stockade. These contributing factors as well as the discontent felt overall by the miners and the poor lifestyle of living on the mines all led to the Eureka Stockade. The Stockade itself lasted for little more than 15 minutes, with the protesting miners piling behind a tin hut, many lives were lost and the Eureka stockade was seen as a failure by many. Although it did end up with the miners getting a vote and the problem of corruption being looked at and dealt with in some sense. The Stockade was organised by Peter Lalor, a miner from the Victorian Goldfields.
