Why do most Australians hate Asians?

Most Australians do not hate Asians. This is a negative and entirely untrue viewpoint. However, early suspicion of Asians was generated with the arrival of thousands of Chinese who came to the goldfields in the 1850s. They were hard workers, prepared to spend longer hours in the fields than the Australian workers, and thus they found more gold, which they then often sent back home to their families in China. This caused a great deal of resentment in the goldrush decades.

What caused the Himalayas to form?

The Himalaya's formed when the sub continent of India broke away from Gondwanalandand from memory approx 55 million years ago. Gondwanaland was comprised of the continents we now know as Antarctica, Australia, South America and Africa. The Indian piece travelled north and collided with Asia ie where India now is. This caused uplift of the collision forming the Himalaya's. It is anticipated that Australia (which is drifting north at a rate of 13cm per year will eventually form part of mainland China. It would be likely by that time that the Himalaya's would be considerably smaller due to erosion and the collision between Australia and China will create a new mountain range.
