From the moment European settlers arrived to present-day. Americans have earned their freedoms and we need to proud to be proud of that. Patriots represent exactly what the flag does; strength, bravery, purity, innocence and that we are on guard for enemies. Patriots don’t betray their country. Patriots will support their country and help improve it in its darkest hours.

Especially, the new flag should remove the Union Jack from the canton and to introduce a completely new design which is without the Southern Cross. (Wikipedia 2014) And it has been an ongoing debate since early 1990s. From the history of Australia, we can know that it has many connections with Britain.
They began to take up jobs that would be considered unsuitable for women before 1914, such as working in munitions factories and other war industries. Many women volunteered to work overseas as nurses or ambulance drivers. They also drove buses, streetcars, and worked on police forces and civil service jobs. They were also needed for agriculture. Almost all jobs men did before they left to fight in the war were now a women’s job.
For many of the women the war was ‘a genuinely liberating experience’ (first world war, accessed 07/01/09), and made the women feel useful as citizens. Also for some women it gave them the freedom that only men had enjoyed so far and ‘offered escape from jobs of badly paid drudgery’ (war and gender, accessed 22/01/09).

Individual Essay “How has the Americanisation of Australian culture influenced the franchise industry of Australia, and has this had a positive impact?” Prime Minister John Howard once quoted stating that ‘cultural vitality has a role in shaping national identity’ (Howard, 1995). Australian identity has shaped dramatically through the American influence rising in the 90’s and well into present times. To understand this change we have to analyse not only the impact it has had on Australian culture but also the impact on Australian businesses which are driven by the consumers of Australia. Looking at the Franchise sector, a $131 billion business with over 73000 franchise units currently operating we can see what type of business Australian consumers are driving. A massive opportunity then is available to capitalise on the strong influence of
Since the 1960s, Indigenous Australians have made progress towards gaining freedoms and having people and governments recognise their rights. People now frequently discuss and evaluate the extent to which these rights and freedoms are recognised. The Coranderrk mission was the first political struggle for Aboriginal people in Victoria. The aboriginals received a piece of land, and this site became known as the Coranderrk Mission in 1863 and by mid 1970s the community prospered and hence became a valuable piece of land. The Aboriginal Protection Board realising the value of the land and ‘suggested’ the community to be moved to Murray.
Oprah brings her heart and soul into everything she is doing. Oprah is always willing to try new things and be creative. Oprah preaches self-empowerment but she also exemplifies and radiates it herself. It was her self-empowering attitude that made her emerge from a frequently abusive and bleak looking upbringing to become one of the most influential people in the world.

We value mate ship and always help others in need as well as bravery in wars such as Gallipoli. Australia’s identity is still a huge debate to whether or not we have an identity or
Unlike Greek plays, where main characters were kings and nobles for they were thought to embody the whole community, modern tragedies present an average leader of a family, neither completely good nor completely evil, whose mistake leads to his self-destruction. Joe is a role model to his neighbourhood for he is a hard-working, decent man; it is easy to feel identified with him. We see how significant he is among his neighbours since even children have a sense of respect for him. We see this when little Bert says; “Except some kids from Thirtieth Street. They started kicking a can down the block, and I made them go away because you were sleeping”.
