/aus/ Feels

Any other Aussies find it hard to take pride in their heritage and country? I mean we have so little history and nothing as complex as european or even middle eastern, we have not battles or wars of our own (the closest thing was fighting in new guinea during ww2). I just find it so hard to identify as "australian" when i'm really just British a few generations back. but Europeans will never except us and aboriginals will deny us as Australians. Why did my grandparents ever leave England for this shithole, i have no cultural identify and nothing to be proud of.

>Why did my grandparents ever leave England for this shithole
Because they were criminals?

Ethnicities are created and destroyed all the time.

There was a time when the Dzungars didn't exist, then they did exist, and (sadly, due to genocide) now they don't exist (more or less, since surviving Kalmyks and other Oirat Mongols might or might not choose to identify as Dzungar). That took place in the range of only a couple hundred years.

shan't be reading this drivel

The only people who walk around thinking better of themselves because their ancestors(not them) fought some battles are exactly the kind of people that are failing their country.

You should be proud of your country's civic values because those are the ones you personally can help conserve and they are the real legacy that has been passed down to you from your ancestors. People from my country who post on /his/ or Sup Forums and feel genuine pride because 600 years ago some archers smashed some french nobility to death at agincourt don't really have a fucking clue about the world or their country.

Aussies might not have much history but this is the only book series I ever read fully.

got im

I have a Serb friend who's parents are both full serb and their parents are full serb and so on, he is able to speak Serbian his country has a rich history with lots of traditions, food and culture and what do i have? Nothing. I have no traditional food or anything we are nothing but a mockery and a shell of its former self. The majority of the youth here have so many forced memes like " 'straya" which nobody has ever said unironically we say 'stralia.

we had to read that in year 9 english
geg

>this is the only book series I ever read fully.
Fucking yanks I swear

At least the culture you once had isn't being mercilessly murdered by media and in government schools so that you become a fat, addicted shell of your former self

it really is a shitty series
