Seeing as it's quite inevitable at this stage that 'mother England' has been defeated by her colony, I thought I would start the humiliation of the Poms here on NSG.

My best is only 838m. I don't mind though, because we've won the third test at the WACA & the Ashes have been reclaimed. :)

Because Australia's original use by the Brits was to deport their criminals over there.They killed off most of the indigenous inhabitants.
Hence,a lot of people there can trace back their history to people who were deported as convicts.

I learnt something interesting while reading Wikipedia, apparently WA wasn't started as a prison colony, but they accepted convicts when things didn't go so well in exchange for help from the English. WA had just over 20 convict free years.
