Which heritage has influenced the culture, political institutions and overall Australian history?
CorrectMillions of people from all over the world have made Australia their home. Their lives and experiences have influenced all aspects of Australian life.

4. Question
In 1851 heavy rush of people’s movement was observed from rest of the world to South Wales and Victoria. What was the reason behind this people’s rush?
CorrectDuring the Australian gold rushes, significant numbers of workers (both from other areas within Australia and from overseas), relocated to areas in which gold had been discovered. A number of gold finds occurred in Australia prior to 1851, but only the gold found from 1851 onwards created gold rushes. This is mainly because, prior to 1851, the colonial government of New South Wales (Victoria did not become a separate colony until 1 July 1851, and Tasmania did not become a separate colony until 1856) had suppressed news of gold finds which it believed would reduce the workforce and destabilise the economy.
