It was close to failure due to lack of infrastructure that was massively boosted by con labor. If u r interested look into Fremantle prison. As for fifo workers a couple of places I worked fifo had the most incredible camps in Australia that no one outside the employees could dream of some camps where made to show of investment opportunities towealthy investors . Talking disgustingly wealthy as you can imagine. I had an incredible fifo career. Not saying it’s all like that. Not trying to be mean but hot many aussies now our own history and it’s sad.

    People don’t realise that only 180,000 convicts were sent to Australia, and the last convicts that were sent there from England arrived in 1868. Over half of the total number of convicts, 90,000 were sent to Tasmania alone. Today Australia is 27 million people. 13 million of them arrived in the country by plane as migrants since 1975.

    As an American living in Australia for 5 years now the cities look and feel very American. American brands, restaurant chains etc everywhere. Australians are not “wild” like Joe says, they are way more reserved than Americans, for instance, look at their bus stops Australians form perfect lines to wait for the bus whereas in American cities it’s just a chaotic mosh pit waiting for the bus. More reserved but that’s the older crowd. Aussie millennials are almost exactly like American millennials with a few minor variances. You really need to live in an Australian small town to experience what Aussies are really like.

    Hey Louis and Joe. I'm a Perthon and I'm a FIFO mine worker, so I thought I'd clear some things up... . First of all, Perth or more acurately, Freemantle actually was founded as a convict colony. The gold and Iron mines didn't start up here until long after the convict settlements. Yes, we are covered in iron dust all day if you're up in the Pilbara (Pil-brah) or maybe gold dust if you're working down South in Kalgoorlie (Kal-goo-lee). The roster I'm on is only week on week off and its $150k with bonuses. Not bad for a bloke that left school at 16. Louis is correct about there being nothing around us... Perth is the most isolated city with more than a million people, on earth (2.1).

    I love the culture of WA. I grew up partly in a little coastal suburb where its not unusual for electricans to live next to doctors and share a beer with each other on the weekends. Its one of the few places where trades are considered as important as university degrees and if your university educated daughter marries a heavy diesel machanic he'll probaby earn more money than she ever will . It wasnt until i left WA for Asia as a teen that I discovered this was extremely unusual. Western Australia is one of the most beautiful and diverse places places in the world. Hes right it is it an wierd place.

      It is funny to think about, but then I found out that one of the first places Russia invaded in Ukraine was a place with a very similar “wouldn’t it be funny if we were our own country?” meme, and they were like “We are going to liberate you from the evil Ukrainians (so long as you remain a Russian puppet state)!”.
      So now I’m thinking we should maybe tone it down a bit just incase China gets any ideas lol

He was solely responsible for all of the ill-feelings towards migrant workers on the goldfields that ultimately lead to riots and destruction of property at Dingbat Flats at Kalgoorlie. May he still rot in his grave!

    Two styles of comedy work in Australia: Some will lap up the US style spell it out comedy, others will desire the British style, dry, satirical comedy. Louis' style fits more into the British bracket. The US version of the office goes just as well down here as the British version does. 'Oooh, your'e ard...'

    That's nothing. I'm in a large seaside town on the east coast of Oz. We get parrots of every description, kookaburras, koalas, possums, kangaroos (literally grazing on your front lawn at night), wallabies, deer (feral imported) and snakes cruising around like they own the place. I love the wildlife here.

    Louis CK wasnt the first American comedian who actually came to Australia and travelled extensively and got to get a good feel of its countrymen and women;the LEGENDARY Phyllis Diller came toour country many times and travelled all over the place and she was much loved by we Aussies as she made a real effort to get to know us.Her unique self depreciating humour was very much admired here.

    Being a performer in Australia isn’t easy, it takes a while to warm up the crowd, you have to earn their respect each performance.
    I went to guns and roses in Brisbane last time they were here, and you could tell they were not enjoying themselves.
    However, as the night went on, the crowd warmed up, it ended up being a brilliant show!
    They loved it, we loved it, it was fantastic!
