AUSTRALIA'S HISTORY
Aboriginal people dream on a timeless continent Australia’s Aboriginal people were thought to have arrived here by boat from South East Asia during the
last Ice Age, at least 50,000 years ago. At the time of European discovery and settlement, up to one million Aboriginal people lived across the continent as hunters and gatherers. They were scattered in 300 clans and spoke 250 languages and 700 dialects. Each clan had a spiritual connection with a specific
piece of land. However, they also travelled widely to trade, find water and seasonal produce and for ritual and totemic gatherings.

AUSTRALIA'S CULTURE
Australian culture is founded on stories of battlers, bushrangers and brave soldiers.Of sporting heroes, working heroes and plucky migrants. It’s all about a fair go, the great outdoors and a healthy helping of irony. Today Australia also defines itself by its Aboriginal heritage, vibrant mix of cultures, innovative ideas and a thriving arts scene.

Flynn onto the world stage. Australia the country also often gets a starring role, with landscapes that range from foreboding to romantic and sublime.

Australian inventions include the very old, such as the boomerang and the woomera, and the very new, such as the scramjet, first fired at the Woodmere rocket range.

The full 40 spans multinationals in a range of industries, from Fosters, synonymous with beer but whose wine business is now its larger part, to Qantas Airways to Macquarie Bank, which has developed an investment banking niche in large-scale infrastructure and is the world's largest operator of private toll roads.

Life style

Australians are very friendly and helpful people, with a great sense of humor and a natural ability to tell jokes and play with words. Sometimes they may appear cold because of their "private nature" which has been imported over the past 2 decades, but it is just takes time to "break the ice", and everything goes well. It means you can talk about any subject, but for more personal matters, things will take a little bit longer to come out in the open.

In reality, Australia is considered one of the most competitive nations on Earth. This covers all areas of life including the work place
