the reason the land is dry is because of the great dividing range a series of mountains collecting majority of the rainfall and keeping the water on that side and space

[bsakhalthang]

[aznxo]

[joelhungerford]

Aborigines didnt build permanent homes, nor did they have farms, Where did you get this information?

[HangThu-zbqq]

One day an American will pronounce Canberra correctly

At the 1:15 mark you mention the first settlers as coming 50, 000 years ago but your graphic shows a time of 5000.

Loved this video & will be showing it to my Spanish ESL classes today, but definitely some things I would correct 😂 First & foremost: we don’t say “Aborigines” anymore as it’s considered derogative. The correct term is “Aboriginals” or even better “Indigenous/First Nations People”.

Wow’sa I’m using this for my speech 🎤 so you’re channel is awesome 🤩 so I hope you enjoy 😉 xx love Ella

It shows a kiwi and Maori in the intro which are from New Zealand not Australia. Also Aussie has states and territories. Otherwise a good video.

Australia did not exist as a country until Jan 1 1901.

Nobody says "Botany Bay" better than Walter Koenig.

[harunknal]

Thanks for nice video. Which program you use for this video

[Shifty]

Good video, severely under-represented the Aboriginal massacres though.

Also, January 26 didn't become a unified Australia day until 1994.

Highly underrated just needs some minor improvements, fix the sounds pls lol

The colonisation began not in 1770 when Cook arrived, but rather in 1788. They all nearly died from starvation and wars with the local Eora people led by the warrior shaman Pemulwuy.

😂😂😂😂 history brought to the world by colonel Sanders and ronald McDonald

[TheRadioAteMyTV]

What happened to the Penal Colony part of history? Are you going to skip the Pilgrims when you talk about the first Thanksgiving too? Or the first flight and airplane flight when you talk about the Wright Brothers? Wow a great bike history video that Wright Brothers video was. Geesh.

[letsgame]

I thought you said war was created by Australian but you said more

[cherilynnsingh]

Who says Australia is not British colony?? Australia still pay yearly tax to crown, Australia still celebrates queen/king birthday.
