In xxxx, the iBefore xxxx, units of soldiers from all six Australian colonies had been active as part of British forces in the Boer War. When the British government asked for more troops from Australia in early xxxx, the Australian government obliged with a national contingent. Some 16,500 men had volunteered for service by the war's end in June xxxx.[224] But Australians soon felt vulnerable closer to home. The Anglo-Japanese Alliance of xxxx "allowed the Royal Navy to withdraw its capital ships from the Pacific by xxxx. Australians saw themselves in time of war a lonely, sparsely populated outpost."[225] The impressive visit of the US Navy's Great White Fleet in xxxx emphasised to the government the value of an Australian navy. The Defence Act of xxxx reinforced the importance of Australian defence, and in February xxxx, Lord Kitchener provided further advice on a defence scheme based on conscription. By xxxx, the battlecruiser Australia led the fledgling Royal Australian Navy. Historian Bill Gammage estimates that on the eve of war, Australia had 200,000 men Historian Humphrey McQueen has it that working and living conditions for Australia's working classes in the early 20th century were of "frugal comfort."[227] While the establishment of an Arbitration court for Labour disputes was divisive, it was an acknowledgement of the need to set Industrial awards, where all wage earners in one industry enjoyed the same conditions of employment and wages. The Harvester Judgment of xxxx recognised the concept of a basic wage and in xxxx the Federal government also began an old age pension scheme. Thus the new Commonwealth gained recognition as a laboratory for social experimentation andCatastrophic droughts plagued some regions in the late xxxxs and early 20th century and together with a growing rabbit plague, created great hardship in the rural area of Australia. Despite this, a number of writers "imagined a time when Australia would outstrip Britain in wealth and importance, when its open spaces would support rolling acres of farms and factories to match those of the United States. Some estimated the future population at 100 million, 200 million or more."[228] Amongst these was E. J. Brady, whose xxxx book Australia Unlimited described Australia's inland as ripe for development and settlement, "destined one day to pulWith the encouragement of Queensland, in xxxx, a British protectorate had been proclaimed over the southern coast of New Guinea and its adjacent islands. British New Guinea, was annexed outright in xxxx. The possession was placed under the authority of the newly federated Commonwealth of Australia in xxxx and with passage of the Papua Act of xxxx, British New Guinea became the Australian Territory of Papua, with formal Australian administration beginniMore than 416,000 Australian men volunteered to fight during the First World War between xxxx and xxxx[232] from a total national population of 4.9 million.[233] Historian Lloyd Robson estimates this as between one third and one half of the eligible male population.[234] The Sydney Morning Herald referred to the outbreak of war as Australia's "Baptism of Fire."[235] 8,141 men[236] were killed in 8 months of fighting at Gallipoli, on the Turkish coast. After the Australian Imperial Forces (AIF) was withdrawn in late xxxx, and enlarged to five divisions, most were moved to France to sJohn Monash was appointed corps commander of the Australian forces in May xxxx and led some significant attacks in the final stages of the war. British Field Marshal Montgomery later called him "the best general on the western front in Europe". Monash made the protection of infantry a priority and sought to fully integrate all the new technologies of warfare in both the planning and execution of battles, thus he wrote that infantry should not be sacrificed needlessly to enemy bayonets and machine guns?but rather should "advance under the maximum possible protection of the maximum possible array of mechanical resources, in the form of guns, machine-guns, tanks, mortars and aeroplanes". His first operation at the relatively small Battle of Hamel demonstrated the validity of his approach and later actions before the Hindenburg Line in xxxx confirmed it. Monash was knighted in the field of battle by King George V following 8 August advance during the Battle of Amiens.[239] General Erich Ludendorff, the German commander, later wrote of 8 August xxxx as "the black day of the German Army... The 8th of August put the decline of [German] fighting power beyond all doubt".[240] Amiens, fought between 8 and 11 August xxxx, marked the beginning of the allied advance that culminated in the 11 November Armistice ended the war.[240]erve under British command.ng in xxxx.[230]sate with life."[229] positive liberalism.[210]"under arms of some sort".[226]ll-fated Burke and Wills led the first north-south crossing of the continent from Melbourne to the Gulf of Carpentaria. Lacking bushcraft and unwilling to learn from the local Aboriginal people, Burke and Wills died in xxxx, having returned from the Gulf to their rendezvous point at Coopers Creek only to discover the rest of their party had departed the location only a matter of hours previously. Though an impressive feat of navigation, the expedition was an organisational disaster which continues to fascinateUluru and Kata Tjuta were first mapped by Europeans in xxxx during the expeditionary period made possible by the construction of the Australian Overland Telegraph Line. In separate expeditions, Ernest Giles and William Gosse were the first European explorers to this area. While exploring the area in xxxx, Giles sighted Kata Tjuta from a location near Kings Canyon and called it Mount Olga, while the following year Gosse observed Uluru and named it Ayers Rock, in honor of the Chief Secretary of South Australia, Sir Henry Ayers. These barren dessert lands of Central Australia disappointed the Europeans as unpromising for pastoral expansion, but would later come to be appreciated as eThe discovery of gold in Australia is traditionally attributed to Edward Hammond Hargraves, near Bathurst, New South Wales, in February xxxx[170] Traces of gold had nevertheless been found in Australia as early as xxxx by surveyor James McBrien. As by English law all minerals belonged to the Crown, there was at first, "little to stimulate a search for really rich goldfields in a colony prospering under a pastoral economy."[171] Richard Broome also argues that the California Gold Rush at first overawed the Australian finds, until "the news of Mount Alexander reached England in May xxxx, followed shortly by six ships carryingThe gold rushes brought many immigrants to Australia from Great Britain, Ireland, continental Europe, North America and China. The Colony of Victoria's population grew rapidly, from 76,000 in xxxx to 530,000 by xxxx.[173] Discontent arose amongst diggers almost immediately, particularly on the crowded Victorian fields. The causes of this were the colonial government's administration of the diggings and the gold licence system. Following a number of protests and petitions for reform, violence erupted Early on the morning of Sunday 3 December xxxx, British soldiers and Police attacked a stockade built on the Eureka lead holding some of the aggrieved diggers. In a short fight, at least 30 miners were killed and an unknown number wounded.[174] O'Brien lists 5 soldiers of the 12th Regiment and 40 Regiment killed and 12 wounded[175] Blinded by his fear of agitation with democratic overtones, local Commissioner Robert Rede had felt "it was absolutely necessary that a blow should be struck" But a few months later, a Royal commission made sweeping changes to the administration of Victoria's goldfields. Its recommendations included the abolition of the licence, reforms to the police force and voting rights for miners holding a Miner's Right.[177] The Eureka Flag that was used to represent the Ballarat miners has been seriously considered by some as an alternative to the Australian flag, because of its controversial association withAlternatively, in xxxx, the Premier of New South Wales, Bob Carr, dismissed the Eureka Stockade as a "protest without consequence".[179] During the xxxx Australian federal election, Deputy Prime MinisterJohn Anderson stated his view that "I think people have tried to make too much of the Eureka Stockade...trying to give it a credibility and standing that it Later gold rushes occurred at the Palmer River, Queensland, in the xxxxs, and Coolgardie and Kalgoorlie in Western Australia, in the xxxxs. Confrontations between Chinese and European miners occurred on the Buckland River in Victoria and Lambing Flat in New South Wales, in the late xxxxs and early xxxxs. Driven by European jealousy of the success of Chinese efforts as alluvial (surface) gold ran out, it fixed emerging Australian attitudes in favour of a White Australia policy, according toNew South Wales in xxxx was the first colony to gain responsible government, managing most of its own affairs while remaining part of the British Empire. Victoria, Tasmania, and South Australia followed in xxxx; Queensland, from its foundation in xxxx; and Western Australia, in xxxx. The Colonial Office in London retained control of some matters, notably foreign affairs,The gold era led to a long period of prosperity, sometimes called "the long boom."[182] This was fed by British investment and the continued growth of the pastoral and mining industries, in addition to the growth of efficient transport by rail, river and sea. By xxxx, the sheep population of Australia was estimated at 100 million. Gold production had declined since the xxxxs, but in the same year was still worth £5.2 million.[183] Eventually the economic expansion ended; the xxxxs were a period of economic depression, felt most strongly in Victoria,The late 19th century had however, seen a great growth in the cities of south eastern Australia. Australia's population (not including Aborigines, who were excluded from census calculations) in xxxx was 3.7 million, almost 1 million of whom lived in Melbourne and Sydney.[184] More than two-thirds of the population overall lived in cities and towns by the close of the century, making "Australia one of the most urbanised societies Bushrangers, originally referred to runaway convicts in the early years of the British settlement of Australia who had the survival skills necessary to use the Australian bush as a refuge to hide from the authorities. The term "bushranger" then evolved to refer to those who abandoned social rights and privileges to take up "robbery under arms" as a way of life, using the bush as their base.[186] These bushrangers were roughly analogous to British "highwaymen" and American "Old West outlaws," and their crimes often included robbing small-town bBold Jack Donahue is recorded as the last convict bushranger.[187] He was reported in newspapers around xxxx as being responsible for an outbreak of bushranging on the road between Sydney and Windsor. Throughout the xxxxs he was regarded as the most notorious bushranger in the colony.[188] Leading a band of escaped convicts, Donahue became central to Australian folklore as the Wild ColonBushranging was common on the mainland, but Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania) produced the most violent and serious outbreaks of convict bushrangers.[187] Hundreds of convicts were at large in the bush, farms were abandoned and martial law was proclaimed. Indigenous outlaw Musquito defied colonial law and led aThere was much bushranging activity in the Lachlan Valley, around Forbes, Yass and Cowra in News South Wales.[187] Frank Gardiner, John Gilbert and Ben Hall led the most notorious gangs of the period. Other active bushrangers included Dan Morgan, based in the Murray River, and Captain ThunderboltAmong the last bushrangers were the Kelly Gang, led by Ned Kelly, who were captured at Glenrowan in xxxx, two years after they were outlawed. Kelly was born in Victoria to an Irish convict father, and as a young man he clashed with the Victoria Police. Following an incident at his home in xxxx, police parties searched for him in the bush. After he killed three policemen, the colony proclaimed Kelly anTraditional Aboriginal society had been governed by councils of elders and a corporate decision making process, but the first European-style governments established after xxxx were autocratic and run by appointed governors?although English law was transplanted into the Australian colonies by virtue of the doctrine of reception, thus notions of the rights and processes established by the Magna Carta and the Bill of Rights xxxx were brought from Britain by the colonists. Agitation for representative government began soon after the settlement of the cThe oldest legislative body in Australia, the New South Wales Legislative Council, was created in xxxx as an appointed body to advise the Governor of New South Wales. William Wentworth established the Australian Patriotic Association (Australia's first political party) in xxxx to demand democratic government for New South Wales. The reformist attorney general, John Plunkett, sought to apply Enlightenment principles to governance in the colony, pursuing the establishment of equality before the law, first by extending jury rights to emancipists, then by extending legal protections to convicts, assigned servants and Aborigines. Plunkett twice charged the colonist perpetrators of the Myall Creek massacre of Aborigines with murder, resulting in a conviction and his landmark Church Act of xxxx disestablished the Church of England and established legal equality between Anglicans, Catholics, Presbyterians andIn xxxx, the Adelaide City Council and the Sydney City Council were established. Men who possessed 1,000 pounds worth of property were able to stand for election and wealthy landowners were permitted up to four votes each in elections. Australia's first parliamentary elections were conducted for the New South Wales Legislative Council in xxxx, again with voting rights (for males only) tied to property ownership or financial capacity. Voter rights were extended further in New South Wales in xxxx and elections for legislative councils were held in the colonies of Victoria,By the mid-19th century, there was a strong desire for representative and responsible government in the colonies of Australia, fed by the democratic spirit of the goldfields evident at the Eureka Stockade and the ideas of the great reform movements sweeping Europe, the United States and the British Empire. The end of convict transportation accelerated reform in the xxxxs and xxxxs. The Australian Colonies Government Act [xxxx] was a landmark development which granted representative constitutions to New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania and the colonies enthusiastically set about writing constitutions which produced democratically progressive parliaments?though the constitutions generally maintained the role of the colonial upper houses as representative of social and economic "interests" and all established Constitutional Monarchies with the British monarch as theIn xxxx, limited self government was granted by London to New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania. An innovative secret ballot was introduced in Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia in xxxx, in which the government supplied voting paper containing the names of candidates and voters could select in private. This system was adopted around the world, becoming known as the "Australian Ballot". xxxx also saw the granting of the right to vote to all male British subjects 21 years or over in South Australia. This right was extended to Victoria in xxxx and New South Wales the following year. The other colonies followed until, in xxxx, Tasmania became the last colony to grant universal Propertied women in the colony of South Australia were granted the vote in local elections (but not parliamentary elections) in xxxx. Henrietta Dugdale formed the first Australian women's suffrage society in Melbourne, Victoria in xxxx. Women became eligible to vote for the Parliament of South Australia in xxxx. This was the first legislation in the world permitting women also to stand for election to political office and, in xxxx, Catherine Helen Spence became the first female political candidate for political office, unsuccessfully standing for election as a delegate to the Federal Convention on Australian Federation. Western Australia granted voting rights Legally, indigenous Australian males generally gained the right to vote during this period when Victoria, New South Wales, Tasmania and South Australia gave voting rights to all male British subjects over 21only Queensland and Western Australia barred Aboriginal people from voting. Thus, Aboriginal men and women voted in some jurisdictions for the first Commonwealth Parliament in xxxx. Early federal parliamentary reform and judicial interpretation however sought to limit Aboriginal voting in practice?a situation which endured until rights activists began The origins of distinctly Australian painting is often associated with this period and the Heidelberg School of the xxxxs?xxxxs.[199] Artists such as Arthur Streeton, Frederick McCubbin and Tom Roberts applied themselves to recreating in their art a truer sense of light and colour as seen in Australian landscape. Like the European Impressionists, they painted in the open air. These artists found inspiration in the unique light and colour which characterises the Australian bush. Their most recognised work involves scenes of pastoral and wild Australia, featuring the vibrant, even harsh colours of Australian summers.[200]campaigning in the xxxxs.[195]to women in xxxx.[193][194]male suffrage.[191] symbolic head of state.[192] South Australia and Tasmania.[191] later Methodists.[190]olonies.[189]d his gang wanted outlaws., killed outside Uralla.[187]ttacks on settlers.ial Boy.[187]anks or coach services.in the western world."[185] and its capital Melbourne. defence and international shipping. historian Geoffrey Serle.[181]probably doesn't enjoy."

By xxxx there were 500,000.[261] The stage coach company Cobb and Co, established in xxxx, finally closed in xxxx.[262] In xxxx, the Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Service (to become the Australian airline QANTAS) was established.[263] The Reverend John Flynn, founded the Royal Flying Doctor Service, the world's first air ambulance in xxxx.[264] Daredevil pilot, Sir Charles Kingsford Smith pushed the new flying machines to the limit, completing a round Australia circuit in xxxx and in xxxx traversed the Pacific Ocean, via Hawaii and Fiji from the US to Australia in the aircraft Southern Cross.

Identifying strongly with family and mates, Kelly was opposed to what he regarded as oppression by Police and powerful Squatters. Almost mirroring the Australian stereotype later defined by historian Rusel Ward, Kelly became "a skilled bushman, adept with guns, horses and fists and winning admiration from his peers in the district."[197] Journalist Vance Palmer suggested although Kelly came to typify "the rebellious persona of the country for later generations, (he really) belonged.Australian literature was equally developing a distinct voice. The classic Australian writers Henry Lawson, Banjo Paterson, Miles Franklin, Norman Lindsay, Steele Rudd, Mary Gilmore, C J Dennis and Dorothea Mackellar were all forged by?and indeed helped to forge?this period of growing national identity. Views of Australia at times conflicted?Lawson and Paterson contributed a series of verses to The Bulletin magazine in which they engaged in a literary debate about the nature of life in Australia: Lawson (a republican socialist) derided Paterson as a romantic, while Paterson (a country born city lawyer) thought Lawson full of doom and gloom. Paterson wrote the lyrics of the much-loved folksong Waltzing Matilda in xxxx.[201] The song has often been suggested as an Australia's national anthem and Advance Australia Fair, the Australian national anthem since the late xxxxs, itself was written in xxxx. Dennis wrote of laconic heroes in the Australian vernacular, while McKellar rejected a love of England's pleasant pastures in favour of what she termed a "Sunburnt Country" in her iconic poemA common theme throughout the nationalist art, music and writing of late 19th century was the romantic rural or bush myth, ironically produced by one of the most urbanised societies in the world.[203] Paterson's well known poem Clancy of the Overflow, written in xxxx, evokes the romantic myth. While bush ballads evidenced distinctively Australian popular medium of music and of literature, Australian artists of a more classical mould?such as the opera singer Dame Nellie Melba, and painters John Peter Russell and Rupert Bunny?prefigured the 20th century expatriate Australians who knew little of 'stockyard and rails' but would travel abroad to influence Western art and culture.[204]: My Country (xxxx).[202]..to another period."[198]Australian public.
