1.	Describe the relationship between Aborigines and the Australian government.
Answer» The relationship between the Aborigines and the Australian government has fluctuated throughout its history.Explanation:During the British colonial period, Aborigines were persecuted with their land STOLEN and many of them killed. With little rights, the population dwindled and by the 1900s the natives were a small minority in their own land.By 1960S, liberal activists supported native causes and by 1962, they were finally given the right to VOTE for the first time. As they got representation in the government, they were better ASSIMILATED into the society, with the first aboriginals becoming part of the government in the 1970sToday, there are no formal frictions between the Australian government and the Aborignies, however, the group is considered a minority having lost most of their culture, language and traditions.The group is also among the poorest ETHNICITIES in Australia with limited access to proper housing and medical facilities.
