[Instead of the king,
Australia's government decided that new
five-dollar bills will carry an image
Honouring the country's indigenous culture.

[British explorer James Cook mapped
and claimed the east coast of Australia for Great Britian,
and the First Fleet of British ships arrived at Sydney
in 1788 to establish the penal colony of New South Wales.
The European population grew in subsequent decades,
and by the end of the 1850s gold rush,
most of the continent had been explored by
European settlers and an additional five
self-governing British colonies established.]

It wasn’t our land. We invaded and took it.

There were colonies of people living there before we barged in

So you think it should be returned to the Spanish? Their colonies were there before the British.

The ancestors of Aboriginal Australians began arriving from south east Asia approximately 65,000 years ago, during the last ice age.[21][22] Arriving by sea, they settled the continent and had formed approximately 250 distinct language groups by the time of European settlement, maintaining some of the longest known continuing artistic and religious traditions in the world.

But they were absolutely useless.

The British have done more for the advancement of the World and Humanity then any other civilisation in history.

You should be proud and honoured to be British, not knock us.

I assumed you were referring to Jamaica, as it was mentioned in a few posts above yours. If you're going to throw out non-sequiturs, you could at least use the place name you're talking about.
