Australia was "discovered" by Lieutenant James Cook in 1770 when he
came
ashore at the place called 1770. Australia lost it's independence that
day
as he claimed the place for the British.


Australia could not have lost it's independence to the Brits in 1770.

Australia as a nation didn't EXIST until it was CLAIMED by the Brits.

Then it was POPULATED by the Brits.

Typical Queenslander red-neck to forget that some other people had
already
populated New Holland way before us whiteys got there.

Did you miss the part of my post that said, "some other people had already
populated New Holland way before us whiteys got there"?
