Federation or the eureka stockade.

Eureka stockade was a protest by gold miners against the colonial government (about taxes, mining licences, etc) that turned violent, and the gubment killed a couple of dozen miners. To prevent further issues, the Australian colony was quickly given a representative parliament and the vote etc, so it was the thing that turned us from a total colony into our own thing really.

It's too fucking hot for people to live here, regardless of our pigmentation. Most of the country is scorched fucking desert or bushfire dry scrub. The Victorian south east coastline and Tasmania are nice during the colder months but aside that, it's too fucking hot for humans here.

The dismissal of Prime Minister Gough Whitlam by the Governor-General in 1975. Probably the biggest happening in Australian history.
