Which bushranger committed the largest robbery in Australia's bushranging history?
Frank Gardiner. On 15 June 1862, together with with Ben Hall and Johnny Gilbert, Gardiner bailed up the Lachlan Gold Escort in Eugowra Rock, near Forbes. This hold up is still considered to be the largest ever gold robbery in Australia's history. The total value of the 2,700 ounces of gold taken was estimated at £14,000 (approximately AUD$2 million in 2006 terms). Almost half of the gold was recovered by mounted police following a raid on one of the Gardiner hideouts in the Weddin Mountains near Forbes in NSW.

How long is Australians history and culture?
Australias history can only be dated back to 1606 as the first recorded European landed on the continent naming it New Holland. Before this date, Australia did not exist. The Aborigines never recorded history so they being in the continent really accounted to nothing. They did not build anything, they did not farm, or create any scientific technologies. The Aborigines were nomadic meaning they did not own the land they merely lived off it. The Aborigines didn't even have a name for the continent. So since it is 2011, Australias history dates back 405 years.
