when Europeans arrived in Australia territory and colonized it, nearly 1.000.000 Aboriginal people lived in the territory and engaged in hunting and agriculture.
During the 17th century several explorers arrived on the coast of Australia, using the territory as a prision for prisioners from Britian.
From restrictions on migration to oponnes to the whole world:
in 1901 the nation of Australia, composed of six states, was formed. Initially a law called White Australia Policy was passed, which aimed to restrict entry into the country to people from Europe. Over time, Australia has become the destination and home of people from all over the world.
TRIBES:
Aboriginal Australians are, along with Torres Strait Islanders, the descendants of the first inhabitants of the Australian country and its adjacent islands, and have continued to live there throughout European colonization. Under Australian law, both peoples make up all of the indigenous Australians. The traditional territory of Aboriginal Australians extends throughout Australia, Tasmania and some nearby islands.
