The Australian Indigenous community hold extremely significant corrections to the land of Australia, of which they refer to as ‘Country.’ Indigenous people acquire deep meaning from the land, sea and the countless resources derived from them. This special relationship has formed for many centuries. To them ‘Country’ is paramount for overall wellbeing; the strong, significant, spiritual bonds embody their entire existence. Knowledge is continually passed down to create an unbroken connection of past,

I respectfully acknowledge the past and present Nooongar Whadjuk people on which land Curtin University is based and of the Bindjareb Noongar people, the traditional custodians of Mandjoogoodrap (Mandurah) the land on which I live and work. Mandjoogoordap means meeting place of the heart and is a unique, distinctive and authentic place within the Gnaala Karla Boondja region, consisting of waterways, rivers, lakes, the estuary, ocean and coastal plains, and a rich history of Aboriginal people’s lives and stories. I respect the vibrant, endless culture that past and present Noongar people bring to this boodja (country).

For Aboriginal Australians, the land has a special significance that is rarely understood by those of European descent. The land, or country, does not only sustain Aborigines in material ways, such as providing food and shelter, it also plays a major role in their spiritual lives. As Rose put it, "Land provides for my physical needs and spiritual needs." (1992, p.106). To use Rose 's own term, to Aboriginals the land is a 'nourishing terrain '. (1996, p.7).

In the video “Into Nepal – A Journey through the Kathmandu Valley,” there were many concepts that were easily recognizable due to the information that was given during the first semester of the AP Human Geography course.

The powerful interaction of power and privilege is thoughtfully explored throughout The Secret River (2015) by Diana Reid which shows the discriminatory ,ethnocentric practices between the Australian Colonizers and the Indigenous people that defines the period. Before Colonization in 1788, Aboriginal Civilization was composed of over 600 different nations that organized the Australian landscape which was more than 40millenbia (Broome 2010). Privilege is a benefit that only a single person or group of individuals usually has because of their position whereas Power is the potential to control the people and events .(Barbara 1994). Several factors lead to power differences between the Indigenous and European cultures that resulted in dispossession

For many millennia, the sacred lands of Daguragu and Kalkaringi have been retained by the Gurindji tribe. These areas are more commonly located in the upper reaches of the Victoria River of Australia's Northern Territory. Coincidently, the previous statement is an example of the reason the Wave Hill Strike occurred. Europeans ‘discovered’ Australia and decided that the Native Australians were irrelevant, and successfully decided to disregard them as fellow human beings for over 200 years.

In this commentary on Western Australian indigenous history, Leonard Collard and Harben S, Noongar scholars explain the distinct gap between the colonists, or wedjila’s interpretation of the Noongar as well as the their own unique worldviews and history. The importance of passing Katajin on through oral history is emphasized here, especially in regards to the dynamic system of Noongar place names that does not necessarily fit into our perspective.

Wurundjeri People(39000BC-1835) were hunter/gatherers and actively managed the environment such that they did not permanently deplete its resources.The creek and surrounding lands were important to Aborigines for food, shelter and travel.

Aboriginals or indigenous Australians are the native people of Australia. Aboriginals were nomadic people who came to Australia about 40,000 – 60,000 years ago from Southeast Asia. Religion is a great part of Aboriginal culture. The essay answers these questions: What do Aboriginals belief? What is a Kinship system? What is Dreaming and Dreamtime? What rituals does Aboriginals have?

Ayer’s Rock, also know as Uluru to the Aboriginees that have inhabited the area for more than 10,000 years, is a landmark that brings floods of tourists to the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park (About Ayer’s Rock). This land is sacred to the Aboriginees, and much like American’s demand respect for their Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Aboriginees demand respect for this sacred ground, and rightfully so. Culturally, they are not to touch, stand, or climb on it. Westerners sought to reach the colorful rock formations and do just those things. It is utterly disrespectful for Westerners to tarnish the sacredness of the land.

Australian Aborigines are thought to have the longest continuous cultural history in the world. Yet, within a hundred years, the near extinction of the Aboriginal culture almost occurred. This single event, the invasion of the Australian continent by European settlers, changed the lifestyle, the culture, and the fate of Australian Aborigines. Their entire lives were essentially taken away and they were forced into a white, European world where the lifestyle change could not have been any different. Aborigines in Australia today are struggling to deal with a past in which they lost touch with their culture and now are trying to regain some of that cultural identity.
