      Between 1788 and 1868 the British penal system transported about 162,000 convicts from Great Britain and Ireland to various penal colonies in Australia.[1]
      The British Government began transporting convicts overseas to American colonies in the early 18th century. After trans-Atlantic transportation ended with the start of the American Revolution, authorities sought an alternative destination to relieve further overcrowding of British prisons and hulks. Earlier in 1770, James Cook had charted and claimed possession of the east coast of Australia for Britain. Seeking to pre-empt the French colonial empire from expanding into the region, Britain chose Australia as the site of a penal colony, and in 1787, the First Fleet of eleven convict ships set sail for Botany Bay, arriving on 20 January 1788 to found Sydney, New South Wales, the first European settlement on the continent. Other penal colonies were later established in Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania) in 1803 and Queensland in 1824.[2] Western Australia - established as the Swan River Colony in 1829 - initially was intended solely for free settlers, but commenced receiving convicts in 1850. South Australia and Victoria, established in 1836 and 1850 respectively, officially remained free colonies. However, a population that included thousands of convicts already resided in the area that became known as Victoria.
      Penal transportation to Australia peaked in the 1830s and dropped off significantly in the following decade, as protests against the convict system intensified throughout the colonies. In 1868, almost two decades after transportation to the eastern colonies had ceased, the last convict ship arrived in Western Australia.[3]
      The majority of convicts were transported for petty crimes, particularly theft: thieves comprised 80% of all transportees.[4] More serious crimes, such as rape and murder, became transportable offences in the 1830s, but since they were also punishable by death, comparatively few convicts were transported for such crimes.[5] Approximately 1 in 7 convicts were women, while political prisoners, another minority group, comprised many of the best-known convicts. Once emancipated, most ex-convicts stayed in Australia and joined the free settlers, with some rising to prominent positions in Australian society. However, convictism carried a social stigma and, for some later Australians, being of convict descent instilled a sense of shame and cultural cringe. Attitudes became more accepting in the 20th century, and it is now considered by many Australians to be a cause for celebration to discover a convict in one's lineage.[6] In 2007, it was estimated that approximately four million Australians are related to convicts that were deported from the British Isles to Australia.[7] The convict era has inspired famous novels, films, and other cultural works, and the extent to which it has shaped Australia's national character has been studied by many writers and historians.[8]

      - a fear of being plain and boring.
      - a fear of looking weak.
      - cops and robbers and jail. And although the cops protect the working class, the working class seem to prefer crims. This elevation of and affection for crims goes back a while....back to settlement actually....when there were, except for aboriginals, only copsandcrims.

    8: 29- " That's even further down under down there". In fact, New Zealand is geographically closer to you in the USA than Australia is. That's why the very long 'direct' flight between Sydney and New York goes via Auckland ( in both directions) for a top-up of fuel, as Auckland is 1,300 kms to the east of Australia. So we're about three and a half hours closer to you.

    Seriously though both counties are awesome and we really do love each other like brothers. As for the dangers, I'm terrified of spiders too, but I've been there a bunch of times and can count on one hand the amount of spiders I've seen. Outside of a zoo, I haven't seen any snakes either. Seriously, they are there, but if you stay away from the danger spots, you'll be totally fine. Nah, the thing you really have to look out for, is the bird that sounds like a screaming baby, that thing is truly terrifying!

    Sheep to human ratio in NZ: Google says that NZ has about five million inhabitants but 10 million cows and 26 million sheep, so that would be about 5 sheep per person. In Australia, there are only three sheep per person. (Germany: 1.6m sheep, 84.5m population)

    He´s got some good points! :) And for dialect, every English speaker in the world want to either speak like an Aussie or a Scot (I´m a Swede). I think it is because of both having this very down to earth attitude. For mixing stuff up, both Australians and Austrians are kind of tired of it. Here in Vienna, they sell a lot of T-shirts where it states "There are no kangaroos in Austria!". I have also seen hilarious responses from Austrialian tourist centers, when they get asked where the Vienna boy quire will be performing (it is obvously at King´s cross, next to the hippo races and one should preferrably come naked). Yep, mix shit up, it will smell and irritate the locals. :)

We often cite the single good thing John Howard did, which was the famous buyback and amnesty scheme held in 1996-97, led by Howard after the Port Arthur massacre, which prompted the surrender of almost 650,000 firearms. Research has consistently shown that the post-1996 reforms had immediate and sustained effect on the incidence of mass shootings.

I don’t think people will cause a fuss but it is very unfunny and the “joke” has been done to death.
    If I had to come up with an equivalent it would be like if a kid was torn apart by an America eagle something that just generally doesn’t happen and then everyone makes the mum out to be some evil hillbilly and mock her southern accent.

      We do have guns here, but you have to be licenced and they have to be registered.
      We don't have CCW's (carry permits) here, though. That's why there's so many victims of violent crime, because criminals are armed.
      Even if you're licenced, it's illegal to use firearms for self defence.
      Oh, and by the way, Port Arthur was NOT the last mass shooting in Australia.
      I mentioned that because most ill-informed/anti gun people, often spew that narrative to people overseas.

    At 16 you can apply for a "Learners Licence"... once you pass that you get a "Provisional Licence" (that has certain restrictions)... After that you get another different coloured Provisional Licence (lessened restrictions, but still with some) and only AFTER ALL THAT do you finally get a "Full Licence". So to get your full driver's licence in Australia takes about 3-4 years (the entire process from obtaining a learner's permit to receiving a full license) before you are fully trusted to know how to handle a vehicle and that you are at the very least 19-20 years old by that time.
    Which means by that point to have an absolute minimum "skill level" just to be a driver on Australian roads. You have been "vetted" to be safe under your own supervision, to not have retained certain bad driving habits and to not be a danger to yourself or anyone else behind the wheel.
    It's similar to becoming a police officer in Australia. Cadets go through a minimum of 52 weeks of police training. Followed by 15 months on the job probationary training under the direct constant supervision of a veteran officer with a certain minimum number of years of experience under their belt. And only THEN (assuming training went well) can they become a full-fledged police officer. By which point they are well trained in "de-escalation" and non-threatening negotiation, have a really good understanding of the law and their own responsibilities to the public. When and where to pull out (and to not pull out) their weapon in situations etc etc etc. You need at absolute minimum a high school diploma (and even that alone is not enough... requiring you to do extra credentials to even apply to become a cadet).
    In the USA. It is about 5 months of training and 1 year probationary to become a fully fledge Police officer under semi-constant supervision of any qualified officer (whether they passed just last week or 20 years ago or whatever). And you don't even need to have passed basic high school to do cadet training.
    Plus Australia pays their police officers more (you get about $96,000 a year just when you are still only a probationary officer in training... while in the USA they are paid about $86,000 a year after becoming a fully qualified police officer). Which reduced the chances of police corruption in Australia.
    When you don't teach people fully before throwing them into the deep end... serious and often lethal mistakes are bound to happen more frequently.
