Australian forces had significant success in the North African campaign during World War 2 (1939-1945) which is highly evident in their extensive contribution and notable allied victories in various battles including the battle/siege of Tobruk and the second battle of El Alamein. Axis powers focused their attention to the Suez Canal and the Persian oil fields. This would enable them to control Mediterranean shipping/trading and would warrant axis power to accumulate crucial resources in order to retaliate and expand through-out the Middle east. Australia’s success was due to a multitude of factors including the military ability of the Australian 9th division and Australian artillery and soldiers skill tactics in the face of intimidating German

Migration has been an important influence on Australian society and the economy. Between 1947 and 1982, over a million Britons immigrated to Australia, the majority of whom travelled under the ten pound assisted passage scheme funded by the British and Australian governments. This large intake of British migrants was encouraged as part of Australia's 'populate or perish' nation-building initiative, which emerged in the aftermath of World War II. The Ten Pound Poms, as they became known 82% were English were mostly from an urban background.
During World War 2 the Australian prime minister, John Curtin, called on America for help. This speech will present evidence to prove the hypothesis: the social benefits of the Americans being deployed in Australia outweigh the negative social impacts. This will be done by addressing 3 main focus questions. These questions are: when and why did the American troops come to Australia? How did the Australian society benefit from the American presence?
While in Australia, I started to filter myth from reality. I have to set my objectives and goals and how to achieve them. I needed no one to tell me what Australia is and what opportunities are available. My struggle began. I moved from different state to the other in search for work.
Introduction Australia is said to be a multicultural and multiracial country. So why can’t we, as a country and as a nation, say yes to immigrants fleeing from a different country? As immigration to Australia is supposably apart of our history and it would be wrong not to continue on with the actions of our ancestors. Paragraph 1 As of 2014 – 2015, Australia accepted 13,750 refugees in total. Paragraph 2 • What are refugees and asylum seekers?
Should Australia change the date of Australia Day? Some of you may be wondering why this is such a controversial issue and some of you might already know. If you don’t know why I’ll tell you. The date that we celebrate Australia Day is not the date we became our own country, you may be thinking “so what?” well I’ll tell you, the day we are celebrating is the day Great Britain invaded Australia and the start of when they tortured and killed thousands of the Australian indigenous people, there are multiple dates available that were important to Australia or represent Australia and this date has no monument recognizing the day

Humans have relied on interaction with other humans since the creation of man; without human interaction, one does not learn the social expectations and civilized manners required to survive in this world. Dracula’s view as an anti hero build the claim to his lonely existence. Loneliness can be attributed to any of the main characters within Dracula and can even explain the motivations behind their actions. Moreover, the characters, at times, not only feel physically separated from the others in the story, as well as society, but they also feel emotionally isolated. Also, Count Dracula leads the loneliest existence out of all of the characters in the novel, and is therefore motivated the most by his feelings of isolation and desire for companionship
As patriotic Australians we pride ourselves to be a nation that accepts and respects the beliefs of all cultures, but on this historical day majority of Australians tend to forget the true meaning behind the celebration. If you ask today’s society, what they did this Australia day mass numbers would respond with “binged on alcohol” and “indulged in a barbecue.” Consequently, this day cannot be called a national celebration when some of our fellow Australians are grieving while others are out celebrating an occasion they know little about. Giving due regard to the indigenous people and their mostly negative perspective on this issue should be a priority. A new date, not the 26th of January should be established, as rather than unite, it seems to divide Australians into different viewpoints.
We’ve all heard the Australian stereotypes. But where do the stereotypes come from? Australia’s identity encompasses many widespread stereotypes, some of which are used advantageously to promote Australia on a global scale. Globally, Australia’s main stream identity is that of a baron outback. Adding to the collective stereotype; bogans and yobbos have played a developmental role in the Australians characteristic identity.
As I ponder over my life, each memory seems identical to the other, and I find myself drifting through a reality of similar events that generate the same memories and emotions. Looking back further into my childhood includes memories of my homeland. I remember entering a new world at the age of five, where all of my later memories would be formed. This was when my family moved to the United States from Peru, my native country in the South. The complete change in culture and values truly impacted me when I first moved to Florida, and I reflect over the significant effect it has had on my character during the last thirteen years of my life.
Moving to a new country can be difficult sometimes. Leaving all my relatives and friends back home was the saddest thing for me. My mother told me that we were moving to a new country. At first, I thought my mother was joking about it. but little did I know that she was telling the truth.
