After gaining independence in 1901, the Australian government implemented Immigration restrictions primarily to promote a "White Australia" policy, which aimed to maintain a racially homogeneous society. This policy was driven by a desire to prevent non-European immigration, reflecting prevailing social attitudes and fears about competition for jobs and resources. Additionally, the government sought to consolidate its national identity and ensure the economic and social stability of the new nation. These restrictions continued in various forms until the latter half of the 20th century.
