As an American I have had since 1980 a deep reverence for your country born of the Australian Broadcasting Service. It was then that American public television showed a miniseries called “Against the Wind” that permanently affected me as a boy. Your story as Australians yearning for Independence was our story as well as colonial Americans. The heroic efforts and persistence of Australians and particularly the Jonathan Garrett family of New South Wales who I understand actually still exist in Aus, brought many of us Americans to a love of a country which many of us in truth will never have the privilege to see in person. 🇺🇸🇬🇸

My parents came to Australia from Italy in 1957/8 after a voyage of 30+ days by water. It's certainly a very different reality now, being able to communicate by video calls, send/receive an email in a moment and although it's a long flight, it's really nothing in comparison. I can't imagine what it would have been to those who first came on sailing ships! It must have been a great psychological jump to travel to somewhere so very far away from everything and everyone you'd known.

[@georgesmith4509]

As an older Aussie (80+) I did enjoy your doco., but I thought I might add a couple of point that most Australians today are not aware of. Prior to 1949 Australian traveled overseas on a BRITISH passport. The 1788 landing at Botany Bay has nothing to do with Australia day, other than (now ) an unfortunate choice of dates, there was NO Australia day holiday. There were No Americans on the Kokoda Track and only one detachment of American" Cee Bee's" at Milne Bay. It was these 2 campaigns that stopped Japanese advance south. Had the Japanese taken Port Morseby they would have to invade Australia to control the Torres Strait. And deny the U.S. of access to Darwin Broome was also bombed as was Katherine, in the N.T Still a bloody good doco.

[@sirsillybilly]

@george smith Australia Day although a modern moniker was celebrated in NSW as ‘Settlement Day’ from 1838 marking 50 years since the first landing. Proponents of changing the date always state it to be a modern celebration so it has no meaning, when in actuality it has been celebrated for 150 years more than they were taught. Inversely.. Ideals of ‘First Nations’ is a Trojan Horse thought up by nefarious forces behind the curtain not celebrating Indigenous people but dividing Australians. Divide and conquer.

[@catofthecastle1681]

@Aussie True Trying very hard to understand your comment, as I feel you have something important to say, but it’s very hard to get through!!

[@echelon2k8]

The date of 26 January 1788 marked the proclamation of British sovereignty over the eastern seaboard of Australia (then known as New Holland). Although it was not known as Australia Day until over a century later, records of celebrations on 26 January date back to 1808, with the first official celebration of the formation of New South Wales held in 1818.

@@davelawless6874 Pom is short for pommy wich is short for pomegranate wich was slang for "immigrants" The free australian settlers from Britain used this against new European settlers not part of the commonwealth. After it caught on the aborigines used the term towards all new white and English settlers. After time when australia became its own country with its own rules and accents and people and money ETC. Pom was starting to be used only against the brits and it became such a fad within the new australian population. And finally to this day its used against the british as a joke and slang for who they are. Just like saying yanks for the americans. So pom is for the early Australian immigrants 100's of years ago but still for the british. Doesn't have shit to do with the 21st century.

I think it’s going to be difficult to produce a documentary that will be *seen* as an “unbiased history” of a country that has been so often divided in ideologies and leadership, just like it would be dang near impossible to please everyone with a history of Palestine and Israel. That said, I’d love to see Syria and I agree with your comments.

Kangaroo in Egypt, just a remarkable sight for the Aussies.....

[@daverussell457]

The kangaroo mascot stationed in Egypt was named Skippy. Skippy was on permanent shore leave at Mena Camp, the British Empire’s training ground in Egypt. Another famous kangaroo was Jimony, the mascot of the No. 1 Australian Auxiliary Hospital based at Harefield in the UK. Apparently there were a lot more kangaroos used as mascots during WWI after members of the 9th and 10th Battalions smuggled them from home aboard transport ships.

Australian history is so similar to Canadian. It's as if we mirror of each other. Both countries are children of Britain but at polar opposites. As a Canadian, I tip my hat to our cousins down under!

I’m Australian of mixed European and Indigenous heritage and I think this was very interesting and done with respect. One thing I would like to point out that with some indigenous mobs it’s disrespectful to display images of deceased people and generally a warning is put up denoting that “this material contains images of deceased persons and may be distressing to Aboriginal viewers”. I’m not having a go at you for that as you weren’t to know but I thought I would point it out. Again it’s a great video and as an Aussie I’m proud you decided to make one on our country.

[@kailenmcauley8216]

That wasn't virtue signalling you fucking moron

[@liftwell]

I remember as a Young Australian in the 80's (primary school) most of the Australian history I remember being taught was about the Voyages of James Cook. No Aboriginal history until secondary school (It was the 90's) by then even then I lived in the Kimberly where there is a high proportion of Aboriginal people. We probably learn more about Aboriginal Culture from the Aboriginal Teachers Assistant rhe school has to employ under a new law. (I remember a few Social Studies field trips were she took the lead, one was about Bush Tucker and in another she talked about the local Aboriginal stories about the local river) the school had to legally employ than from any of our teachers. I'm a teacher now (Geography and IT) spent the first 5 years of my career in Australia, last 10 or so in the UK. The History teachers at my school seems to only teach about Aboriginal history when discussing Australia. If you are younger than me is this still the case? While I think it is important to teach Aboriginal history in Australian schools I don't think it should be completely at the expense of some Australian European history especially the Explorers Cook, Sturt and Burke and Wills.

Even in the mid 1960s. in what is now KS2 we were taught the rudiments of Aboriginal culture in "Social Studies". We also covered the New Zealand Maori. I agree, it was interesting and it would have been nice to have covered more.
