You are being disrespectful. Somebody's family had their crops shitted on by Emu invaders. EDIT: Shat upon. Thanks Rexy, this comment would have haunted me for the rest of my life.
I gotta say, I was born and raised in America and was taught literally nothing about Australia. I didn't even know about aboriginal people until recently or your Ned Kelly guy. Man our education system sucks
You are ignorant like other norteamericanos. First of all you are not American. America is a continent on which you live You are norteamerican ...an immigrant country. Read a little bit about Spanish history. Ignorant.
It isn't significantly important to our history, it is just something people like to say when they find out your Aussie or are doing an Aussie history like this.
I have always wondered about the history of australia,İ am not an Australian but I really wanted to learn the history of a country I love for a long time,thank you for making this video.
Growing up in Australia learning about Aboriginal culture, Captain Cook and the Exploration of our country every year at school kind of makes you lose interest in Australian history, so it's good to see foreigners so interested in our beautiful country's history
@@rohansmith4603 well that's coz there's not really much to teach. They didn't have a writing system so we have very little understanding of what happened in Australia before 1788
Between the saltwater crocs, sharks and snakes, plus the thousands of other dangerous wildlife, I can't imagine how terrifying Australia must've been for those early explorers.
They would have been like gentleman steve irwin/ bear grylls but civilised Like "I say here we are. Gathered amongst the lush forests of this tropical hinterland. Here looks a terribly vicious spider. I shall prod it with a stick"
I'd like to see that film as a mandatory part of our education system. Watched it when I lived in an Indigenous community and lent it a local Elder who was a victim of the stolen generation. She said that though it got some of the point across, it didn't come close to the trauma they experienced.
Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives ... You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace.

Mike Nonga the fucked up part is that Europeans help other immigrants but don’t help the natives out with they’re poverty and they help refugees that fucked they’re own countries with war and they pay money for them but not the natives sad asf.
It’s good that you added Tasmania (in half of the pictures) but I feel like you could’ve elaborated more on the history like WWI and WWII as well as Port Arthur and it’s infamous history as it was the worst place for convicts to be sentenced, and it is still standing (tourism now though)
I'm Australian, and have just been reading about the history of the First Fleet and 1400 people on 10 ships arrived in Sydney, but all by two ships left Sydney with thier crews or some.were taken to Northfork Island. The population of European settlers was 1030 with over 700 being convicts, convicts children or convicts wifes, then thier was children and wifes of the offices, marines. A second fleet didn't arrived until over 2 years after the First Fleet which had even less offices and marines and another 1000 convicts in which only 60 percent serviced the trip or the first 6 months after landing in Sydney, then a third fleet came another 12 months later which even more convicts. ??? Most of the setters in the first three transports was very much populated with convicts.
As much as this video was awesome, it was really Australia being colonised and the history after that. Although I like how you talked about Indigenous history I believe you could have gone into more detail about culture and and way of life for us Aboriginal people.

The newsflash of today 20th December 2022 is that all mammals, including humans originated in Australia and spread into the northern hemisphere when Australia was actually part of Gondwanna land and what is now the state of Victoria ( which produced the first mammal, a shrew) was close to land that is now a part of the nation of India. There is already scientifically acknowledged evidence that all parrots and all song birds migrated into the rest of the world from the ancient land mass that is now formed and known as Australia. Also the only two species of monotremes in the world, the platypus and the echidna are the only examples of living fossils embodying the turning point at which some reptiles began evolving into mammals. A turning point they have frozen starting in ancient time and continued to live it right through to the present time. Australia is the most ancient landmass on the planet that has never completely been covered by water. Australian scientist Tim Flannery and other international scientists and even the Smithsonian Institute are now about to rewrite the books on this subject. Thank goodness for the intelligence, grace and wisdom and sheer common sense and perseverance of the indigenous first nation's Australians. They learned the secrets of living within and alongside the natural environment rather than abusing, over exploiting and trying to conquer their natural environmental sustenance support system. I knew the endless miscarried and aborted earlier attempts to claim this land, by so many nations was meant to be. For as long as possible this vast land's hidden, delicate ecosystem paradise was protected in many places by rough, harsh, rocky, desert or deadly infested mangrove shores, while the inviting easy access natural harbour areas were missed. I also believe it was more than fate that kept the invaders away for so long. Now the evidence of our beginnings and the respect for the ancient wisdom of preserving natural environments is coinciding at this present time. I am white Anglo Saxon , Celtic, Gaelic descent 6th generation Australian by the way. It is interesting how the ways in which the aboriginal people were treated badly by the invaders of early Oz, were exactly the same ways in which the ancestors of these invaders were treated themselves by the invaders that dominated and assimilated them into the invader's culture when infiltrating Britain. Massacre, imprisonment, take away the children, place into servitude, forbid the language, the culture, the spirituality of their religion, the worship of nature, the natural medicines, treat as scapegoats, force re education, place into no pay or low pay servitude, force assimilation, but still treat as second class citizens with zero to inferior rights. There were some early, convicts, settlers, citizens of early Australia who recognised the same injustices being forced upon the indigenous were still being carried out against their own nationalities back in Britain and that is why some of them were just escaping by settling in this new country. They protested in horror and disgust but they were overwhelmed by the tidal wave of the international gold rush seekers and new settlers growing the city and town centres and seeking more and more land into the wildernesses where life was remote and eye witnesses were few. Even in those days it was up to the regional governments to decide on what would be more convenient to be reported and what would be more convenient to neglect

Yes! Please show how Spain taxed Mexican prosperity so much that the Mexicans rebelled. Then they invited Anglos into Texas to protect them from Comanches and when the Texans became prosperous the Mexicans repeated the errors of the Spanish by taxing the prosperity of the Texans. Eventually Mexico descended into a third-world shithole so much that their people broke laws by moving into the US to steal American wealth.
Thanks for exploring the land down under Regarding the part about “very young nation”… From 1 January 2021, the second line of the Australian National Anthem was changed from ‘For we are young and free’ to ‘For we are one and free’
Hi, guys! My name is Alexandre and I am learning English. I think one of the best ways to learn English is through funny cartoons as your videos. But, since my English is not "a Brastemp" (it is a Brazilian way to say "not very good") is difficult to follow you. So, if you had your stories in small text, foreigners could follow better. Congratulations!! Your site is very Good!!!
Use video games to help. I learned a working vocabulary of Spanish by playing Pokemon blue version in Spanish. After a couple text based games I upgraded to playing games with audio like Starcraft in Spanish. I also watch dubbed shows. Now I am conversing with all my Latino coworkers and can do pretty well (except with subjective tense).
@@christiangadfly24 as an Indian I would say read novels, books , watch Netflix or documentaries (with subtitles on if there is problem with accent ) .. Video games aren't productive ..
The term used is considered outdated and highly offensive by many people across Australia. The expression is used, though, by Aboriginal and Torrest Strait Islander people amongst ourselves. However, many would find it offensive for a person who is not Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander to use this expression.
1:02 - 1:38 ---- The Animated History of 60,000 years of Aboriginal Australia The rest of the video ---- The Animated History of the last 250 years of White Settlement in Australia
There's not much to say about Aboriginal Australia as there isn't much that can be said with assurance that it's true. Let's just be honest, 60,000 years of Aboriginal Australia isn't as relevant today as the rest of the video. Sure it's important to know they were there but there wasn't much happening that we can talk about.
I remember watching Rabbit Proof Fence in college and that was really the first time I ever learned anything below the surface about aboriginals or Australia Very depressing yet somehow unsurprising (I say this as an American too familiar with our relationship with native peoples)
Saddest thing about rabbit proof fence is that way worst things happened to some Aboriginal children who were taken. Like abuse and raped and I think a few cases of murder
A similar policy also happened to the Native Americans and Maoris. No matter how well-intentioned those people may have been, these policies resulted in cultural death and sometimes even physical death with the children.
CreeperMC 1234 No. There far more deserving countries, like India and Pakistan (the subcontinent) or Ethiopia. There’s way too many histories of japan floating around on yt rn.

@@crazyelf3455 blame the English for that. You can also thank them for forcing our families here against their will. Acting like everyone come here by choice gtfo
that's exactly what i'm saying, that's over 40,000+ years of history that was glossed over, the european british history, is already so well known, because the australian british history, is basically the exact same thing as the british culture, and experience, just implemented in australia. The aboriginal history is so unique, and un-westernized. Canada, britain, australia, france, is all western european history, that's very similar. Let's learn about some unique history for a change, it would be refreshing.
@@PAAKWAMEPAA because there wasn’t much going on in those 40,000 years. they didn’t have a written language or recorded history or civilisation and were incredibly primitive to the point that they were thought of as Fauna
You should do an animated history video about Belgium it has a rich and pretty interesting history consideringen ever since Roman occupation it has been the battlefield of Europe
great video, suggestions for your next clip: 1. touch on "Doctrine of Discovery" the spreading of christianity faith from catholics to invade Indigenous peoples lands 2. Aboriginal people did not cede Sovereignty 4. Blackbirding (term used for stolen slaves 1900s from the pacific islands of vanuatu, solomons) 3. be good to have an Aboriginal person to teach the Didj playing at 6.33min as it belongs to them and its good for the money to go back to an Aboriginal person and not a person by the name of paul carlos as its culturally misappropriation.
Solid points, though I don't really think him playing the Didgeridoo is cultural appropriation, he's obviously spent a lot of time learning it if he can teach it, not really sure what the issue is. Traditionally, it wasn't allowed to be played by women, so would a women playing it be cultural appropriation? Also wouldn't be surprised if he was potentially from a part Aboriginal background, it's not super uncommon here.
I live in Canada. We kinda tried to remove the native race too through catholic boarding schools and cultural suppression. Currently, Canada is experiencing a lot of expression about the catholic schools and blaming of British colonialism, despite Britain’s separate faith. How does Australia fare?
Roughly half of all Aboriginal Australians, who make up around 2-3% of Australia's population, have been converted to Christianity (including Catholicism), I believe.
@@mistergnat638 Australia are the luckiest nation on earth, they've never had to fight for what they have its pretty much been gifted to them on a silver platter by the British Empire. I always find it odd why people in Britain get the blame for empire and they are called colonists even though they aren't the descendants of colonialists the people in Australia, Canada, USA and New Zealand are. The British get all the blame for Empire even though the people who live in those countries benefitted the most from it apart from the natives obviously and they still benefit from the British Empire to this very day.
I’m from Western Australia and was there 2 weeks ago. But then Victoria got COVID from NSW, and now I’m back home and finished my 14-day isolation this morning at 12am. :)
@@cwerkzz I'm sorry you had to go home to iso. we have a wonderful little city here to explore. It's the best when the busker's are on the streets doing there thing. The whole vibe of the city picks up when they are allowed out. WA has better beaches.
@@jadethornton7975 yeah it was wonderful. I was seeing family and I was meant to go for a week but only was there for 4 days. At least I got to see the Melbourne star, eureka sky deck and explore St. kinda a bit. And yeah I love out beaches over here, we aren’t known as much as Sydney or Melbourne but I’d say we are nearly on par with activities to do, at least with natural exploration along the coast and in the Bush.
Captain Cook landed in Australia on the 29 August 1770 and claimed the land on behalf of the british. The first boat of the First Fleet landed at Botany Bay on 18 January, 1788, but the Fleet then moved to Port Jackson (what became Sydney), where on 26 January 1788, the British flag was raised,” My ancestors arrived in 1788 on the fourth ship, I can only imagine the hardships they endured, every generation from then on endured hardships even my fathers time in the 1930s. Trying to farm in harsh conditions, sending sons off to war, going bush for work and my generation has enjoyed their hard work. Australia day has so much controversy yet we all share the hardships of generations gone and we all reap the benefits of those previous generations. Its sad we have to have such division on a day we should all share enjoy and be thankful for.
There is division because the date marks the beginning of the genocidal atrocities that occurred in Australia. Yes I understand the hardships your family would of had but by celebrating on the 26th it doesn't acknowledge the hardships of Aboriginal people and this is what rightly causes the division
@@Daniel-zh8lh I disagree with you there Daniel, Australia day is for all Australians. Every race that has ever come to australia has endured some hardships. Yes a lot of aboriginal people still have hardships just like a lot of other australians, calling out their hardships as special doesnt help in any way. Having been born/raised in the NT and a lot of my family is aboriginal through marriage I can tell you none of them even think the way you do. Aboriginal people want results not empty acknowledgements (lip service). They are more concered about violence in aboriginal communities.
Yeah a lot the kids that where stolen weren't just half cast, full blood children were stolen too, I know this because my nan was stolen as a kid and she was raped by a priest in the mission.
Yes no one mentions that from 1932 - 1984, 250000 nonindigenous children were forcibly taken from their mothers. There was a series once about it, but it gets squashed and not talked about. Both that and the stolen generation should never have happened.
It was apart of new south wales before gaining indapendance like Victoria and queensland however unlike Victoria and queensland it although offered and is within our constitution didn't join the commonwealth of Australia/Australian federation.
Bonus fact: before the Aboriginal people came to Australia it was not a masssive desert, but the Aboriginals burnt down most of that for hunting, and that is why Australia is a desert today. That was probably the largest manmade transformation of an enviroment before global worming today.
@@Euro.Patriot try looking it up for yourself, you might learn something, like how the introduction of sheep, cattle, camels, horses, rabbits, European carp, cane toads had it's environmental impact ,instead of finding the controlled burning actually produces /encourages more growth the next year , global warming has been happening since the Ice Age, landscapes all over the world have changed since then, where there was rain forests, now stands deserts, water levels change, hole in the ozone layer, green house gases, cows farting, more cars, less fossil fuels, over population, industry, melting ice caps, farming, irrigation, yep but must be the aboriginals fault .
Anyone who's Australian greeting from the United states you guys have cool and nice history I would love to go there one day I not sure where though anyway have a good day 🇺🇸🇭🇲
@@denznoah8740 I never feel that and I never stole anything none of my ancestors were stealers but I do wish they’d change history for the sake of change
@@Greatworldofficial yes you stole. That land is not yours. And you even stole natural resources while colonizing many Asian countries. Don't deny it. You stole the land from aboriginals and claim that you're explore
i saw the fence and immediately thought of a film, but couldn't remember what it was called. I've gotta watch it again, i remember loving it when i watched it at school.
Its important to realise the aussies thought alongside thr british during gallipoli it wasnt just aussies, and this video kinda makes out as if the anzacs were the only people treated inhumanly by the japanese, commonwealth and british troops also suffered alongside Americans aswell however overall good video
You should of mentioned that the penal settlement of Australia starting with the first fleet in 1787 was related to the refusal by American colonies to accept British (and Irish) convicts following the American revolution 1775 - 1783. Had the Americans of failed in revolution Australia might of been settled later by free British or French settlers and chartered companies You're also being dangerously polite with the Eureka stockade. There is no evidence of any Chinese involved with the rebellion and plenty of evidence of anti-Chinese sentiment with attacks on Chinese miners, as well as the Chinese being faced with heavier tariffs, bans on sending goods overseas, limited mining areas and being forced to settle in open sewers. It was not a failed episode of republicanism, it was a prelude of White Australian Federation.
I think the Bloody Code should've been mentioned where you would get hanged for petty crimes like threatening someone to burn their haystack (arson), chopping down a tree, pickpocket, vandalize a pond, etc. This was used as a deterrence but it didn't work too well so the option for Penal Transportation to Australia was used instead as a more humane way to punish petty criminals.
As an Australian, this very brief look at our history as a nation, covers pretty much the entirety of everything I learnt in school... so not sure is that says more about the quality of your video, or our education system... 😳
What? This is fake, you didn't cover the emu occupation of Perth
Or the great dingo uprising in the mid north. Sneeky sneeky dingos.

Then they invited Anglos into Texas to protect them from Comanches and when the Texans became prosperous the Mexicans repeated the errors of the Spanish by taxing the prosperity of the Texans. Eventually Mexico descended into a third-world shithole so much that their people broke laws by moving into the US to steal American wealth.

Hi, guys! My name is Alexandre and I am learning English. I think one of the best ways to learn English is through funny cartoons as your videos. But, since my English is not "a Brastemp" (it is a Brazilian way to say "not very good") is difficult to follow you. So, if you had your stories in small text, foreigners could follow better. Congratulations!! Your site is very Good!!!
Your english is amazing!
Seu ingles esta perfeito irmão 🥳
english is really good but if you want to sound less robotic look into contractions, good luck.
Use video games to help. I learned a working vocabulary of Spanish by playing Pokemon blue version in Spanish. After a couple text based games I upgraded to playing games with audio like Starcraft in Spanish. I also watch dubbed shows. Now I am conversing with all my Latino coworkers and can do pretty well (except with subjective tense).

You should change the title to "The very basic history of Australia" I think you know what basic I'm talking about....
Basic please explain
1:05 also known as what?!?!?! oh man, good thing you edited it out, now no one will ever know.
The term used is considered outdated and highly offensive by many people across Australia. The expression is used, though, by Aboriginal and Torrest Strait Islander people amongst ourselves. However, many would find it offensive for a person who is not Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander to use this expression.
1:02 - 1:38 ---- The Animated History of 60,000 years of Aboriginal Australia
The rest of the video ---- The Animated History of the last 250 years of White Settlement in Australia
There's not much to say about Aboriginal Australia as there isn't much that can be said with assurance that it's true. Let's just be honest, 60,000 years of Aboriginal Australia isn't as relevant today as the rest of the video. Sure it's important to know they were there but there wasn't much happening that we can talk about.
What are you complaining about? Should they tell mythical stories of the aboriginees? There is zero historical evidence for that time period.
@L Krieger True lol
we dont know their history, they didnt have any writing systems until the europeans arrived.

They did but you can't understand. They were satisfied with what they had. Not destroying Mother Nature for baseless luxuries.

I understood the Rabbit Proof Fence reference, as it’s apart of the Year 7 curriculum for HASS.
I’m an Aussie, so that’s why I came here
I remember watching Rabbit Proof Fence in college and that was really the first time I ever learned anything below the surface about aboriginals or Australia
Very depressing yet somehow unsurprising (I say this as an American too familiar with our relationship with native peoples)
Saddest thing about rabbit proof fence is that way worst things happened to some Aboriginal children who were taken. Like abuse and raped and I think a few cases of murder
Still goes on. All western counytries are the same
A similar policy also happened to the Native Americans and Maoris. No matter how well-intentioned those people may have been, these policies resulted in cultural death and sometimes even physical death with the children.

Thank you for once again telling Australia’s history from a non-Indigenous perspective.
that's exactly what i'm saying, that's over 40,000+ years of history that was glossed over, the european british history, is already so well known, because the australian british history, is basically the exact same thing as the british culture, and experience, just implemented in australia. The aboriginal history is so unique, and un-westernized. Canada, britain, australia, france, is all western european history, that's very similar. Let's learn about some unique history for a change, it would be refreshing.

Thank you for doing this
great video, suggestions for your next clip:
1. touch on "Doctrine of Discovery" the spreading of christianity faith from catholics to invade Indigenous peoples lands
2. Aboriginal people did not cede Sovereignty
4. Blackbirding (term used for stolen slaves 1900s from the pacific islands of vanuatu, solomons)
3. be good to have an Aboriginal person to teach the Didj playing at 6.33min as it belongs to them and its good for the money to go back to an Aboriginal person and not a person by the name of paul carlos as its culturally misappropriation.
Masterful points. Thank you for sharing.
Solid points, though I don't really think him playing the Didgeridoo is cultural appropriation, he's obviously spent a lot of time learning it if he can teach it, not really sure what the issue is. Traditionally, it wasn't allowed to be played by women, so would a women playing it be cultural appropriation?
Also wouldn't be surprised if he was potentially from a part Aboriginal background, it's not super uncommon here.
I live in Canada. We kinda tried to remove the native race too through catholic boarding schools and cultural suppression. Currently, Canada is experiencing a lot of expression about the catholic schools and blaming of British colonialism, despite Britain’s separate faith.
How does Australia fare?
Roughly half of all Aboriginal Australians, who make up around 2-3% of Australia's population, have been converted to Christianity (including Catholicism), I believe.
We also blame the British
@@mistergnat638 Australia are the luckiest nation on earth, they've never had to fight for what they have its pretty much been gifted to them on a silver platter by the British Empire.
I always find it odd why people in Britain get the blame for empire and they are called colonists even though they aren't the descendants of colonialists the people in Australia, Canada, USA and New Zealand are.
The British get all the blame for Empire even though the people who live in those countries benefitted the most from it apart from the natives obviously and they still benefit from the British Empire to this very day.

Ned Kelly now explains that one boss fight in Ty the Tasmanian Tiger
Captain Cook landed in Australia on the 29 August 1770 and claimed the land on behalf of the british. The first boat of the First Fleet landed at Botany Bay on 18 January, 1788, but the Fleet then moved to Port Jackson (what became Sydney), where on 26 January 1788, the British flag was raised,”
My ancestors arrived in 1788 on the fourth ship, I can only imagine the hardships they endured, every generation from then on endured hardships even my fathers time in the 1930s. Trying to farm in harsh conditions, sending sons off to war, going bush for work and my generation has enjoyed their hard work.
Australia day has so much controversy yet we all share the hardships of generations gone and we all reap the benefits of those previous generations. Its sad we have to have such division on a day we should all share enjoy and be thankful for.
Dang Captain Cook landed in Aus. and the island of Maui in Hawaii. Thanks for teaching me something!!!
There is division because the date marks the beginning of the genocidal atrocities that occurred in Australia. Yes I understand the hardships your family would of had but by celebrating on the 26th it doesn't acknowledge the hardships of Aboriginal people and this is what rightly causes the division
@@Daniel-zh8lh I disagree with you there Daniel, Australia day is for all Australians. Every race that has ever come to australia has endured some hardships.
Yes a lot of aboriginal people still have hardships just like a lot of other australians, calling out their hardships as special doesnt help in any way.
Having been born/raised in the NT and a lot of my family is aboriginal through marriage I can tell you none of them even think the way you do.
Aboriginal people want results not empty acknowledgements (lip service). They are more concered about violence in aboriginal communities.
Love this!
Yeah a lot the kids that where stolen weren't just half cast, full blood children were stolen too, I know this because my nan was stolen as a kid and she was raped by a priest in the mission.
Yes no one mentions that from 1932 - 1984, 250000 nonindigenous children were forcibly taken from their mothers. There was a series once about it, but it gets squashed and not talked about. Both that and the stolen generation should never have happened.

Nice reference to the rabbit proof fence in the thumbnail!
You should of mentioned that the penal settlement of Australia starting with the first fleet in 1787 was related to the refusal by American colonies to accept British (and Irish) convicts following the American revolution 1775 - 1783.
Had the Americans of failed in revolution Australia might of been settled later by free British or French settlers and chartered companies
You're also being dangerously polite with the Eureka stockade. There is no evidence of any Chinese involved with the rebellion and plenty of evidence of anti-Chinese sentiment with attacks on Chinese miners, as well as the Chinese being faced with heavier tariffs, bans on sending goods overseas, limited mining areas and being forced to settle in open sewers. It was not a failed episode of republicanism, it was a prelude of White Australian Federation.
kanderson5555 I bet the Australian Liberal Goverment was behind that little bit of real Australia history.
And convicts were sent to Australia for 80 years. Didn't end until 5 years after the US abolished slavery.
I think the Bloody Code should've been mentioned where you would get hanged for petty crimes like threatening someone to burn their haystack (arson), chopping down a tree, pickpocket, vandalize a pond, etc. This was used as a deterrence but it didn't work too well so the option for Penal Transportation to Australia was used instead as a more humane way to punish petty criminals.
