3 The first uncontested landing in Australia by Europeans was by Dutch navigator Willem Janszoon in European explorers followed intermittently until, in 1770, James Cook charted the East Coast of Australia for Britain and returned with accounts favoring colonization at Botany Bay (now in Sydney), New South Wales. A First Fleet of British ships arrived at Sydney in January 1788 to establish a penal colony. Other colonies were established by Britain around the continent and European explorers sent deep into the interior throughout the 19th century. Introduced disease and conflict with the British colonists greatly weakened Indigenous Australia throughout the period.

6 The flag of Australia is a defaced Blue Ensign: a blue field with the Union Flag in the canton (upper hoist quarter), and a large white seven-pointed star known as the Commonwealth Star in the lower hoist quarter. The fly contains a representation of the Southern Cross constellation, made up of five white stars – one small five- pointed star and four, larger, seven-pointed stars.
7 The flag's original design was chosen in 1901 from entries in a worldwide competition held following Federation. It was first flown in Melbourne on 3 September A slightly different design was approved by King Edward VII in Over the next few years, the exact specifications of the flag were changed several times both intentionally and as a result of confusion. The current specifications were formally gazette in 1934, and in 1954 the flag became recognized by, and legally defined in, the Flags Act 1953, as the "Australian National Flag".

The initial coat of arms was granted by King Edward VII on 7 May 1908, and the current version was granted by King George V on 19 September 1912, although the 1908 version continued to be used in some contexts, notably appearing on the sixpenny coin until 1966.
