Tragic Australian aborigines: enslaved and slaughtered by a group of "criminals", almost extinct.

The history of Australia's founding is actually the exile and colonial history of a group of criminals. Historically, when Australia counted its own population, it did not count the local aborigines and did not treat people as human beings. ...

Before Australia was discovered, North America was the largest exile of the British Empire. After North America declared its independence, it forced Britain to find another place to exile criminals.

1788 65438+1October 26th (Australia's National Day), British Admiral arthur phillip arrived in Jackson Harbor (now Sydney Harbor), announced the establishment of the colonial government of New South Wales and became the governor. He did not conclude an agreement with the local aborigines because the British government regarded itself as a settler of this continent, not a conqueror.

Philip hopes that the British government will send the first batch of immigrants with experience in agriculture, architecture and handicrafts as soon as possible, so as to better take root in the new land. However, the new colony did not get the attention of the British government, and Philip's request was rejected. He can only start his "exile" life here with more than 770 criminals and more than 200 crew members who followed him here.

When Philip first came, there were about 750,000 aborigines in Australia. They lived freely in this closed and isolated world for about 40 thousand years. Because the British colonists did not sign a specific agreement, Australian aborigines were simply "inhuman" in the eyes of the British colonists, unable to enjoy the most basic human rights, and were treated as non-nationals for a long time. As more British criminals were exiled and immigrated, in order to solve the food crisis in the new colonies, this group of extrajudicial people plundered the fertile land on which the aborigines depended for survival. A large number of aborigines either died under the guns of colonists, or became slaves, or were "poisoned" by germs brought by these criminals. By 1933, there were only about 70,000 aborigines in Australia.

In order to further enrich the population, Australia has implemented the "White Australia" policy. During the period from 1947 to 1969, more than 2 million immigrants arrived in Australia. At first, immigrants only came from Britain, then from northern Europe and then from southern Europe. Since the 1970s, immigrants from Asia and the Middle East have also been attracted. At the end of the 20th century, African immigrants were also considered.

Shameless, Australia did not count the aborigines when counting the population, they have all entered the modern society. The Australian government still maintains a shameful colonial mentality. On the one hand, it flaunts human rights, freedom and democracy, on the other hand, it doesn't treat people as human beings.

It was not until the 1960s that these forgotten aborigines were "remembered" by the Australian government: in addition to "noble" whites, there were also a group of human beings living in this land. The Australian government began to adopt a Tonghua policy towards indigenous people and return some land, just like protecting rare animals. 1967, Australian aborigines finally gained civil rights and lived a "human" life. At this time, it has been more than 180 years since the first batch of British criminals came to Australia.
