About Australia

Australia is a country compromising of the Australian mainland. Australia is the largest country in Oceania and also the sixth largest country in the world. Human inhibition of the continent Australian is said to have begun around 65 to 70 years ago.

Australia was occupied by indigenous Australians for 60,000 years before the first British settlement in the late 18th century.

After the European exploration of the continent by Dutch explorers in the year 1606, who named it New Holland, Australia’s eastern half was claimed by Great Britain in the year 1770 and first settled through penal transportation to the colony of New South Wales from 26 January 1788, a date which became Australia’s national day.

The population grew gradually in subsequent decades, and by the 1850s most of the continent had been explored and an additional five self-governing crown colonies formed.

In January 1901, the six colonies federated and formed the Commonwealth of Australia. Australia has since maintained a stable liberal democratic political system that functions as a federal parliamentary constitutional monarchy, comprising of six states and ten territories.
