Australia

The British ruled Australia because they were the ones who colonised Australia. Australia did not achieve self-government until federation in 1901, and even that was still subject to British rules and guidelines, to a lesser and lesser degree, right up until the Australia Acts of 1986.

Although the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia came into effect at Federation, this did not mean that Australia was now independent of Britain. When the UK approved colonial federation, it simply meant that the six self-governing states of Australia allocated some functions to a federal authority. Australia gained the status of a Dominion, which meant it remained a self-governing colony within the British Empire, with the Head of State being the British monarch. The British government appointed Australia's Governor-General and State Governors, who answered to the British government.

Australia is a multicultural country, so a great variety of people live in the country. People from all continents, all religions, all political persuasions occupy Australia. There are rich, poor and in-between; well educated, illiterate and moderately well-educated; skilled, unskilled and semi-skilled. there are conservative and traditional people, and unconventional and liberal people. There are people with a huge range of hobbies and interests, and people who are bored with their own company. There is no way to define the people of Australia, because the variety is huge.

According to the Australian GeoScience site: Queensland's mainland area is 1 723 936 sq km, or 665 254 square miles, with an additional 6712 sq km (2591 sq mi) in island area. The total is 1 730 648 sq km, or 667.956 sq mi.

Legally if you miss 1 payment you are delinquent and they can start repossession proceedings on their vehicle. Remember it is not your car until you pay for it. It belongs to the lender.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics writes:"In 2014-15, 14.5% of adults aged 18 years and over were daily smokers (2.6 million adults), down from 16.1% in 2011-12."

The question is misleading. People do live in the centre of Australia. Aice Springs is a small city of 26000 in central Australia.

There are several reasons why fewer people live in central Australia. The weather sees extremes of dry heat in summer and bitter cold in winter. There are no permanent rivers, so agricultural opportunities are non-existent. Also, the centre of Australia is a very long way from the coastal areas where the climate is more temperate.

Melville Island is in the eastern side off Northen Territory, so North East basically.

The cost of postage can vary dramatically depending on what you are sending, where you are sending it to, how heavy it is, airmail or surface mail, whether it is to be sent as registered mail, what time of year you are sending it and, if the contents might be considered hazardous or even illegal.

For postage rates from Australia to everywhere else, go to the Australia Post home page and select the "Calculate postage rates" option and follow the instructions.

For approximate delivery times, go to the Australia Post home page and select the "International Postage Details" option and follow the instructions.

See the Related Link to Australia Post.

Internationally, the responsible postal authority is at the originating end, the one that takes the payment and sets things moving. The distant end respsonsibility for delivery is free. This is usually a reciprocal arrangement internationally.

For postage rates and delivery times to Australia, you would need to consult the postal authority in the originating country.

There is no fixed time when Australians eat. Most people adhere to the standard breakfast-dinner-tea (or Breakfast-lunch-dinner) schedule of morning, midday and evening. However, the evening meal may be anywhere between 5:00 and 9:00.

Most of the Australians are Caucasians i.e. white people, Settlers from Europe. And the original people of Australia are aboriginals (Native to Australia), dark brown skinned people, who were outnumbered by the settlers. _____________________________________________________________________

Second opinion:

Most Australians are of European descent. The largest European people in Australia are the Anglo-Celtic Australians (or just "Anglos"), who are of English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish (and even Cornish and Manx) descent. Other large groups of Northern Europeans include the Germans, Dutch and Scandinavians.

Southern and Eastern Europeans in Australia are not as assimilated into the single White identity that the US has. They are still seen as "wogs".

Southern Europeans in Australia include mostly Italians and Greeks - there is even a large amount of Maltese!

Eastern Europeans include Slavs such as Serbs, Poles, Croats, Bosniaks, Russians, Ukrainians, Macedonians and others. Non-Slavic Eastern Europeans include Albanians and Hungarians. Middle Easterners are one of the newer immigrant groups (the older "wogs" are joining with the Anglos because of newer groups such as these). They include Arabs (the largest group of Arabs are those with ancestry in Lebanon, although there are a substantial number of Egyptians, too) and Turks. East Asians are huge in Australia. The Chinese are one of the largest migrant groups, and many Anglo-Australians are afraid of being swamped by Asians (see: the notorious racist politician Pauline Hanson)! Chinese are the biggest group of East Asians, indeed, Cantonese is the fourth largest language in Australia! Japanese and Koreans also have a large presence.

There is a large amount of Southeast Asians, especially Filipinos, Vietnamese and Thais. There are not many Black-Africans or Native Americans in Australia, but there are some. Jews, especially Ashkenazis (but also from other groups) are also present in Australia, but they are not anywhere near the size and influence of the American Jewish community (where the largest number of Jews reside).

The Australian Aboriginal tribes were the original ethnic groups of Australia. However, after British colonization, the English became the majority. Later, the English merged with the Scots and Welsh into a single "English-aligned" group, due to their common dislike of the Irish. Then, the Irish became part of the Anglo group, due to Hungarian, German, Italian, etc. immigration. Then the Hungarians, Germans, Italians, etc. became part of the White group because of Asian immigrants. Aborigines, unfortunately, are one of the poorest ethnic groups in Australia.

land area wise its hard to even be accuarte in general. Canada is like 6 or 7 times bigger than ALL of Europe

Eastern Australia provides the ideal conditions for the platypus's habitat. The platypus lives alongside freshwater rivers, lakes and creeks in eastern Australia. The Great Dividing Range runs down the eastern coast of Australia, through the heart of platypus habitat.

Platypuses live particularly within heavily wooded and protected regions. They are found from the cooler sub-alpine areas in the south, such as Victoria and the Tasmanian highlands, north through New South Wales to tropical far north Queensland. They live in bushland as well as tropical, sub-tropical and temperate rainforests. All of these as can be found in mountainous regions.

Yes, there is. It is considered that there has once been a school for witches and wizards in NSW!

The longest bridges in the world include Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge, Tianjin Grand Bridge, and Weinan Weihe Grand Bridge. Other long bridges include the Bang Na Expressway and the Beijing Grand Bridge.

The very first European settlers in Australia (not including the Aborigines who were the first inhabitants) were a mix of convicts, officers and marines and their families, all of whom came from Britain.

The next group of convicts and settlers to arrive also included some Irish. Gradually, migrants from other European countries began to arrive.
