We have some of the worst fires in the world on the regular. It's not new and we take precautions but inevitably we will have them. This Dec/Jan/Feb is looking to be a bad one.
So very simply a convict is a prisoner. Petty criminals were often sentenced to harsh penalties in 18th century England. Minor offenders were often housed in cramped boats off the coast of England. Eventually they started shipping those prisoners to Virginia in the US and then the independence war happened. So they then decided to send them to the newly discovered, in their mind, Australia. Convicts were sent to Australia for a period of either 7 years or 14 years and then allowed to return to England, at their own expense. By the time they had raised the finances they would often have settled down and started a family. Those individuals became the foundation upon which Australia was originally built. Rather than being actual criminals they were more like people just trying to survive and so what was a harsh sentence became a ticket to paradise. Modern Australians often count it as a matter of pride to have a convict in their family tree. BTW, Australia has among the worst wild fires on earth. The fires of a few years back killed over a billion animals and burned more than the size of many European countries.
Thanks for sharing with us.
😳😳
Arriving with the (petty) criminals were exiled members of political movements, and they helped turn one of the most unfree and unequal places on Earth into a democracy.
You have to also factor in the Class society that existed at the time. Nobility owned all the land and people worked on it and paid rent. Commoners did not own land. Gentlemen were forbidden from the distasteful practise of "business", which was seen as beneath them. So, their income was primarily derived from property and crimes against property were very serious. Crimes that seem minor today, such as stealing a sheep to feed your starving family, were seen as a direct attack on the nobility. Also religion plays a major factor, Catholics were seen as dissidents and many Irish were sent to the Americas and later Australia to get rid of them.
I’m an Aussie, from Perth. It’s beautiful, clean and a great pace to live and bring up a family. Absolutely love you guys.
Much love back!
Greenhouse! The out back temperature regularly reaches 130F, stays that way for 3 or 4 years then, drops to 100F and rains for 3 or 4 years. The water mostly disappears before it hits the ground, fun fact, Australia has a cattle station larger than Texas
I'm in Queensland, anybody saying dollarydoos would get looked at strangely or maybe slapped for being a dickhead. Also where I live we had an 8 year dry period prior to the 2011 floods (Lockyer Valley). Since then it has rained fairly frequently due to the La Nina weather cycle which has, apparently, just come to an end so I'm told we are in for a new dry period.....
I'm in the far north west of Queensland, near to the NT border. We were flooded in for six weeks during 2011 floods. 75% of the state was covered in water, That would have covered all of Texas and a small European country. Then we got the warning, that a Category 5 Tropical Cyclone Yasi was coming in at 280kmp i think it hit land at about 200kmp give or take. By the time the cyclone reached us the wind was a gale but it did drop a hell of a lot of rain.
@@OutbackLife656 I used to pass through Grantham going to and from work, it was there one day and the next time I went through about a week later, most of it was gone. The Government stated only 26 dead but I personally saw far more full body bags than that.
Here the standard weather pattern is years of drought then the floods come. All the vegetations turns green over night. The winter sucks the moisture out of everything leaving everything tinder-dry. Summer arrives and whoosh everything is on fire. Summer temperatures are up to and include 46c and sometimes higher. Lucky us! We never have heatwaves out here😂 it is just bloody hot in the summer and cold in the winter.🦘🦘🦘
@@OutbackLife656 I think that's standard for Qld. Up your way though the temperature changes are bigger. I did some small size gold mining up near Clermont in the 80's and hot days and teeth chattering nights were the normal thing.
I love these American videos on Australia. A hot mess of inaccuracies, condescension and plain ignorance. Others have already pointed out all the errors in this piece of crap.
Prior to sending the first convicts to Australia, the British sent them to the American colonies, but the Americans fought for and won their freedom from the British. The commentator on the "Australia Rise to Global Power" has misapplied knowledge; the convicts sent to Australia were social convicts, meaning poor people; their crimes were alleged thefts of bread, handkerchiefs, etc.; today, we refer to these as petty crimes.- those convicts that were guilty of major crimes - murder rape etc were simply hung by the neck and sent only to unmarked graves.
Mate we get heaps of bushfires . Pretty sure our second lowest fire warning is HIGH . A lot of our native flora needs fire to regrow .
This is fairly typical of videos made about Australia by a non-Australian - a mix of right, wrong and inferentially misguided.
First, Australia isn't the largest virtual water exporter by absolute volume although it may be the largest by relative volume as the virtual water exported is roughly equal to Australia's total stored reservoir water.
Second, slang: stiff and iffy? doggo instead of dog? gnarly good day? dollarydoos? Nope.
Third, convicts: there is no stigma attached to our convict history but the idea of Australia as a "convict country" is very much overstated.
The first fleet was only roughly 60% convicts: 750-780 convicts (inc. 200 female) and 550 crew, soldiers and their families. All up, only about 162,000 convicts were sent to Australia. That's a low number compared to the 500,000-odd immigrants that arrived in 1852 in response to the discovery of gold.
As already pointed out below, most convicts were petty criminals although there were some convicted of assault and highway robbery.
Further, many convicts had very successful careers after their term was up,
e.g. Francis Greenaway - an architect convicted of forgery, sentenced to death but commuted to transportation became Australia's first official architect - quite a few of his buildings are still standing. His face was on the previous $10 bank note.
e.g. Mary Reibey - convicted of horse stealing at 13, transported, married an East India Co, trader, became a very successful business woman in her own right after her husband's death. Her face is on the Australian $20 note.
Fourth, the economy: yes, housing is very expensive and negative gearing is, in my opinion, the cause. The main problem with the economy, again my opinion, is that Australia is too reliant on natural resources and farming exports. It manufactures almost nothing. Manufacturing is currently less than 10% of the GDP. (It was 25% in the 1960s,)
Finally, Australia will never be a global power: it's population is too small and will never be large enough.
We have enough water on the west coast to supply the entire country for another thousand years.
Yes we have had terrible bush fires, last one was 2020 and even US fire fighters came to help us, which three died when their plane crashed trying to fight the fires.. We lost millions of native animals too. This summer is going to be terrible and they are pleading for people to become volunteer fire fighters, bracing for a summer of wild fires.
It is way more than 1 million.... Estimates some 3 billion animals were killed or misplaced by the 2019-20 mega-fires in Australia have been confirmed - with a breakdown by animal type for the first time - in a conclusive Sydney-led report commissioned by WWF.
i remember that.. i was on my way home from newzealand at the time i spent the holidays (christmas) with my friend and there family (mine was away doing other stuff that i didnt want to do) and you could litrally see the smoke from wellington and on the way back because the flight stopped at sydney first then was delayed because the city was litrally black with smoke even near ground level could hardly see and there i met some fire fighters, from US, Canada and Uk and some other place was so glad other countrys decided to help. im from tasmania so it wasnt as bad as the mainland like one my friends from vic had to leave there house and evacuate because one of the fires connected to another n made a super fire and was pretty much around the edge of the town they lived it 2019/2020 was crazy
The fires started in 2019 Christmas, we had fires here in Queensland in 2019
I am pretty sure the bushfires started in September 2019. I couldn't get the coast and the road trains were late, getting out here due to the bushfires.@@tiaelina1090
The fires 2019 - 20 burnt out more land that the USA, Europe & Amazon fires that year.
Funny story but true! Australia's first civilian police force. Composed of the 12 most well-behaved convicts it played a crucial role in maintaining law and order in the colony of New South Wales😂. Ha ha ha Australia settled by convicts and the US was settle by religious groups. 🤔 The US ended up with more guns and Australia ended up with fewer gun.😂
That's nonsense. Australia wasn't settled by convicts. Initially Sydney Cove was a penal colony, but only relatively small numbers came to Australia as convicts. The vast majority were free settlers, farmers etc, who quickly realised the value of the land for especially sheep and wheat farming in the plains over the mountains. The majority of settlers were protestants, English and Scottish, and a lot of Catholic Irish were sent as convicts.
Australia- The largest cattle station in Australia is about 24 thousand sq km. = just over 9 thousand sq miles. The biggest cattle near me is about 16,116 sq kms=6,220sq mile. The reason people run such vast amounts of land is because the carrying capacity is so low and you need that much country to run enough cattle to keep the business viable. The largest cattle station in Australia is about 24 thousand sq km. = just over 9 thousand sq miles. The biggest cattle near me is about 16,116 sq kms=6,220sq miles
Guys we have bushfires every year. In 2019 we had the worst bushfires ever as every state had fires, you could see the smoke from outer space and it was on the news in most countries
We have some of if not the worst bushfire in the world... We also have destroying floods as well as drought and plagues..... Apart from that we also have so much richness in our nation in exports...
Only a small percentage of Australians are now descendants of British and Irish convicts . The majority of Australians are descended from free settlers from all over the world , from Europe to Africa , the middle east , Asia , Latin America and a large proportion from the Pacific islands .
G'day Guys! Some observations from here in OZ...we have lost 26 million people but produce enough food to feed 75 - 80 million per annum...subsidies to farmers:- we are the second lowest(less than 2% of farm income) in the OECD behind New Zealand... You asked about the bushfires? Well they would be the Black Summer Bushfires of 2019-2020 when 93,000 sq miles were burned or almost the size of Michigan...we have just has 3 years of wet and this year summer will be extremely hot and tomorrow in Sydney it will be 37ºC or 98.4º F and we are only in the beginning of spring! Convicts:- only 162,000 were shipped to Australia up to 1868 and barely 20% of Aussies have convict ancestors. In fact almost 50% of Australians have at least one parent born overseas and nearly 30% were themselves born overseas... Cheers!
Thanks, mate!
Regarding the weather, we are just coming out of the last 3 year cycle going from what's called La Nina (More rain not as hot) to El Nino (A lot less rain and hotter) also called El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle. Last El Nino in Adelaide where I live we had the hottest day ever 48 degrees Celsius (118 Fahrenheit) on January 24, 2019. I had trees in my garden start to wilt which I've never seen before. I think it's going to be worse than that in the next few years. My friends like growing fruit and veg. as well, we are pretty worried. what if it gets to 50 degrees celsius (122 farenheight) The plants just can't keep up no mater how much you water them.
Ooh 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Okay, Colonial Australia was really a social experiment. Firstly the convicts were not what we would recognise as convicts. Many were political radicals in Ireland wanting independence. And similar to the Scotts and Welsh. There were Africans and Jews on the first fleet. Real criminals were hanged in England. These were selected as being fit enough to start a colony. No one else wanted to go. Okay, each colony was different. New South Wales was the oldest. The Sydney colony was contained as a convict colony for the first 10 or so years before they ventured. And Port Arthur in Tasmania. So NSW and Tassie are the only significantly prison-founded colonies. South Australia was entirely a free colony. Victoria was really a child of prospectors after gold, boomed in the gold rush, and good agriculture. There were already nations there, the Aboriginal people. They were mostly ignored. If only they had taken them more seriously, the colonials would have learned so much about the land they colonized, and made so many mistakes and only learned by mistakes, information the Aboriginal people were more than happy to tell them all along if they just asked. A superpower? I don't think we want to be a superpower. Why would we want that?
We get bushfires every bushfire season & even the indigenous Aussie's the very beginning actually set bushfires on for the reason of cleansing the waste & dead so it'll grow back in abundance for food for both the animals & themselves. So bushfires, like our deadly animals, is something that we live in day to day
I feel sorry for all the people who have been bamboozled by the climate crazies. Yes the planet is getting hotter, that's because we are exiting the latest ice age, not because of people. For some reason people are listening to political hustlers instead of climate scientists and it's a dangerous epidemic.
Climate change is constant, it's not a magical new thing brought about by our puny species.
Western Australia has the best beaches on Earth
Um, no-one in Australia says "dollarydoos" hi caramba
Not a crawfish, it’s a yabby.
We in Australia are in the 4th good season of cropping in the south eastern grain belt. This is helping the global shortfall for wheat in regions reliant on wheat from Ukraine. With events occurring in both Ukraine, and now Israel, Australia's importance to world food and mineral supply will become more important.
I'm from Perth and we have beautiful beaches, wines and because Western Australia is big we have a vast variety of different landscape that the east don't have. I love the east but you shouldn't dismiss the west, north and south 😅
I follow channels out of Australia. Two are from rural farms and they have to purchase their water and have it trucked in and pumped into their water tanks. They are not connected to municiple services nor are they on a well. They have also said that for the first time in 3 years there is currently a total fire ban in the Sydney area. One family is in New South Wales and they had a lot of rain/flooding last summer and in Sept 2019 - Mar 2020 some areas were heavily impacted by out of control wild fires.
We export weat and rice.
We do not say doggo.
Australia was started by 3 groups of people: 1. Convicts, 2. Army, 3 Free people.
In 2020 China stopped importing Australian cole over a comment the Australian Prime Minster made, to make things hard on Australia and failed, Australia never said sorry and China gave in, but we got new markets for our cole. Sad thing is we can sell cole and iron faster than we can dig it up.
One other thing Australia controls the world lithium market. without that no more cordless powertool, laptop and note book computers or EV cars.
Coal mate...
My state of South Australia, was the only colony established by free settlers; the Northern Territory(not classified as a state)was not established through convicts. There was a total of 162,000 convicts transported to Australia between 1788 and 1868; most were to the eastern states, plus some to Western Australia.
being the world's largest producer of Lithium, and soon. rare earth minerals will help I suppose
Australia is well known for bushfire, there are trees that rely on fire to open their seed pods.
We had terrible fires in 2020/21, we've had plenty of others
Ash Wednesday
Black Friday two of the worst.
You need to google Australia, the first fleet. Or Australia's convict history.
man what a crock that video is, its not that dry all the time, he sounds pretty salty
fire in Australia yeah we get the odd bush fire big enough to create their own weather system, with fireballs as big as a 2 story house rolling down the hill
as far as the convicts go , many were sentenced to "transport to the colonies" like 7 or 10 years for stealing a loaf of bread, or some other petty crime
Hi guys! I live in Adelaide(capital of South Australia), and l can remember when our weather patterns were regular as clockwork; not like it is now, one day it's hot and the next it's not. We actually have a facility the grows vegetables year round, it is located near Port Augusta; this location was chosen due to it's dry sunny climate, and it's access to saltwater. They used a large distillation plant, using the heat of the sun; it was started as a project, to check the viability of the concept. It is hoped that this will be the blue print for future facilities; but due to it's need for a constant source of saltwater, they can't be set up too far from the coast.
Yep, a lot of us came here in chains (I've got 7, yes, 7 convicts in my family tree, 3 Irish, 3 English and one Scot), but they did not need the chains. They got 7 years for food or clothing crimes 'cause it was damn cold over there in the UK (except my Scot Borderer. He stole a black horse and got 14 years 'Across the Seas'). BUT, he was a good farmer. Pretty soon he became free, a Constable (policeman, sheriff..) and was given 100 acres. The UK government said "Where's your family?", paid his wife, daughter and 2 sons' fares and they each got 100 acres. Soon they were landlords renting out their land to later arrivals. His son became the second Mayor of Shoalhaven Shire Council. Nearby, my Irish convict was set free and his son, Tom, owned 4 farms. Not all of the 160,000 convicts did well but most did. Only the really bad guys and re-offenders had chains and road gangs. We love it out here.
Watching ya from Western Oz.🇦🇺
Much love, fam!
We do have some real big green houses, we grow pickels for McDonalds in green houses and export them all over the world, even to the USA.
The term ‘Dollary doos’ has never been uttered by an Australian and definitely sounds like something made up by………let’s say …………. by people from other countries who make videos like these.
He forgot about our Lithium exports with electric cars on the uptake.
You couldn't pipe water to the outback it would cost far to much I was told
I haven't seen this video from you guys. You guys are bloody awesome. When are you gonna come down here and become Aussies??
Australia is the best country, but we are not even recognised on the world stage.
We've had the worst fires ever recorded in Australia. The bushfire from a few years ago were twice the size of the Amazon fires
There were 85 bushfires over the weekend in just 2 states.
If you stole a loaf of bread or were a murderer you were a Convict.
Not so. Governor Phillip made sure that the convicts sent to Australia had skills useful for the building of a colony. He was no fool.
I’m from Darwin up north it’s very hot right now lol wet season starts soon I hope
Love your channel, Sandgroper here, known as a Perth WA Aussie. We are very spoilt in our state. Our children 25 male medic security in the mines and 30 daughter airport manager for one of mining giants mines. Both own their own home and cars due to the 6 figure wages and huge bonus's every year. Forget the east too many people, West Australia, huge, vast very rich state and small population.
Around 2-3 years ago we here in Australia we had the worst bushfires on Earth 🌎🌎 the damage caused 2 the country was unbelievable bcoz so many animals died & some native animals like the koala are now becoming extinct
Wind and Solar will not work in the outback, who is going to clean them and put out the fires they cause, nope nope nope. And nope to a lot of the slang words, we don't use them.
I never heard of dollaridoodle or whatever? Sounds like one of those trendy new poodle mix dogs from a puppy farm.
There's going to be a huge wind farm just off the coast of Wollongong from off Stanwell Park south to Kiama, about 60k's. Going to be great seeing all these wind turbines blocking the horizon out to sea.
@@zalired8925 hahaha love it
@@zalired8925 These idiots don't think or do their homework. It's going to be an environmental nightmare at best.
Are you new in Australia or a kiwi🤨
There's a lot, I have observed over 70 years. The climate now to when I was a young lad, are worlds apart.
AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE ....OUI OUI OUI. GREAT VIDEO MATE ..
The English sent petty criminals to Australia. Those who committed capital offences went to the gallows in Britain. Some of those capital offences might have been for the theft of goods above a certain value.
Not quite so. Governor Arthur Phillip was no fool and mandated that all convicts sent to Australia had to have skills appropriate for founding a colony. Basically he ensured that tradesmen such carpenters, stonemasons, builders, farmers, blacksmiths, merchants, builders labourers, shipwrights, architects, medical practitioners, soldiers etc etc came.
Ozzie Ozzie Ozzie, Oi oi oi hehe
😂😂 We forgot about that.
G'day from Jervis Bay NSW.
Hi fam!
Hi guys ,you should type in Australian wildfires 2020. And be Amazed. Terrible destruction and a huge amount of Animals killed and human lives lost.
There were about 800 convicts and 200 soldiers that came with the first fleet in 1786. take out 25% from the soldiers numbers for sick or not fit for duty and the ratio is for every soldier there is one guard for 5.33 convices BUT WAIT...the soldiers worked in rotation shifts , so on every shift you would get about one soldier for 16 convicts..BUT WAIT AGAIN...the soldiers also had rostered days off as well as OTHER duties, so make that MAYBE one soldier to every 25 convicts at any given time. Now work out that these numbers were not that significant in a harsh new climate with an 18 month round joureny from England and back, with water being hard to come by and rations out...does any one in their right mind seriously beleive the soldiers ran into to the bush to fight the natives? That is what is being peddled and it doesn't stand up to any rationale thought in any way! Sick, half starving, thirsty, ournumbered by their prisoners, guards wantonly making war ? NO THANKS..that's ridiculous!
We're rising to be a global power??? :O JEzuz - I sincerely hope not!
no they arent everywhere, you can find them but you have to go to the right place to find them
No offence to the guy who made the video you are reacting to, but he doesn't seem to know much about Australia at all. I'd say even most of his information is innacurate, and actually very far from the truth. Either way, I love your guys reaction! :)
4:20 ...that's not really how that works...
Hey guys, did you know if you had a P.O. Box you will receive more than likes and subscribes, roll out the anklebiters (kids), and individual likes, interests and hobbies. We like watching, first time Vegemite, tim tam tasting, tim tam slam, healthstar rating discovery. We also let the airforce fly a C17 military transport aircraft through the middle of a city (not above, through). 2017 cockpit video, aka, Boeing's bitchin betty has a stroke. Terrain left, terrain right, terrain ahead, altitude, altitude. Haven't seen a reaction vid for that yet (riverfire Queensland).
We closed our P.O. Box for now.
We’ll try Vegemite soon and check out the video .😊
@@TheDemouchetsREACT you open your box I'll open mine. Jewellery box that is, its getting cluttered. Opps?
We have many dangerous fires, unfortunately.
Havebt had an individual recession... Theres been three recesions since then
Many convicts were enemies of the Brtish empire, rebels .
Good future yes (depending on governments). Global power - never. I have lived in Australia for 35 years and we are leaders in... not much at all. 😔
Usa made the Everglades Australia can do something similar
The Everglades are natural not man made.
The video you reacted to is mainly utter rubbish. Don’t believe anything you see in these videos unless you check the facts.
oh my god, you havent heard of fires? 2019 2020 we had most of the country on fire with all was on fire
sorry this is mostly a load of rubbish
some of that info is a little outdated, we have a new government that that is doing alot to combat climate change and build renewable the the previous right wing government we used to have, we can do better and we will
Wehvrve
Hey just watched your video you guys are funny as, if you want to know about the major Bushfires (wildfires) there is a list here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_major_bushfires_in_Australia
Black Saturday of 2009 was particularly horrific
