What would have happened if Australia was never ever colonised? Would aborigines have eventually formed a modern civilisation??

Oh yeah, totally, they were just about getting to inventing the wheel , but whitey showed up and cut down their intellectuals to keep their own ideas from getting drowned out by the more honest and goodnatured values held by these noble beasts.

Probably, looking at some of the aquaculture. Problem is their max capacity was limited so how far they could've gotten is limited. I'm not a fan of Jared Diamond but you're retarded if you think any race of people would've been able to build a civilization in Australia with what the Abo's had available.

Probably as a result of interaction with Indonesian traders in the top end, if they didn't decide to take parts of Aus for themselves first.

How come none of the more advanced kingdoms and sultanates up north ever settled Australia? Did any parts of the Far East know about it outside of some stray traders?
>>
No abbos are incapable of even functioning in a civilization that other people built for them and handed to them on a silver platter. How the hell would they ever build a civilization for themselves?
>>
>>2221217
Never colonised? Then maybe. There is archeological evidence of Aboriginal people settling down, starting primitive argiculture/farming, etc, and certainly those in the north had long trade links with Indonesia.

Why it never developed earlier and/or further, well who the fuck knows?

Well i guess australia isn't exactly prime real estate for a sedentary people, specially not the part closer to indonesia.

I get being sarcastic about the aboriginals just about inventing cities out of nowhere. But using 'whitey' sarcastically like that sorta doesn't work in Australias case. Because, you know, whitey did do some fucked up shit there.

All you need to answer your question definitively is a half hour's face to face conversation with a random abbo. No, no civilization would have ever arised from that distinguished and storied race, I'm afraid.

There are traces of Aborigines trading with SE Asians from across the North of Australia.
There was simply no need when there was plenty of far more arable land available in the Indonesia archipelago.

The fact that Banks and his fellow botanists said that the area surrounding Botany Bay was as well maintained as an English gentleman's park probably shows us the stage the Aborigines were at in that regard. It's a shame most people only meme about the dream time and the myth that Tasmanian aborigines forgot how to make fire. They claimed the same shit about American Indians.

Probably like Papua New Guinea.
