How many aborigines were there in Australia when Europe invaded Australia?

1788 65438+1On October 26th, the British navigator CaptainArthurPhillip led the first group of immigrants to settle in Sydney and raised the British flag. Australia officially became a British colony. Before Europeans arrived in Australia, the indigenous population was estimated to be 300,000 to 1 10,000. Scholars believe that indigenous people arrived in Australia about 470,000 to 654.38 million years ago. Their skin is dark brown, hairy, black, wavy, with deep eyes, high eyebrows, black eyes, garlic-like noses, wide mouths and thick lips. Some people think they belong to Caucasian race, that is, European race. In the isolated environment, after tens of thousands of years of wind and frost variation, it has become the present form. Others think that they are different from Europeans, Mongols and Africans, and they should belong to an independent race, that is, the Australian race. Their misfortune lies in their backwardness. 1770, when the Englishman Captain Cook arrived at the east coast of Australia, the locals didn't know what clothes were. They were in the Stone Age and had no agriculture or animal husbandry. They just hunt and collect with sticks and stones. They have more than 500 tribes, and each tribe is divided into many parts, each with 20 or 30 people, and each tribe is active in its own territory for food. They call it home. There is no country, no leader, no law, no army, and nothing that can be called an organization. In all kinds of small stocks, the elderly have considerable authority because of their rich experience. It is often a few old people who decide what to do on this day. 1788, European immigrants began to occupy Australia and gradually pushed inland from the coast. At that time, British capitalism was further deepened, and the crime rate was extremely high. North America, once a criminal exile, became independent, resulting in a country that later became a superpower. As a result, groups of British criminals were sent to Australia. The British found Australia suitable for raising sheep, and the British textile industry was in great need of raw materials. Australian aborigines' homes were fenced off as pastures. Tens of thousands of years of peace have been broken and the balance of hundreds of millions of generations has been lost. References:
