Why did Austronesian/Polynesian people not colonize Australia?

History
1 answer:
ahrayia [7]3 years ago
3 0
When Australia was colonized by the Europeans, the native people of Australia and the surrounding islands in the South East Asian sea were not as technologically advanced. The Austronesian and Polynesian people made use of wooden spears, shark-tooth swords, and wooden clubs. At the stage, this was their best technology in regards to warfare. The Europeans had steel armor, horses, ships that could travel great distances and gunpowder. The Austronesian and Polynesian people did not have the required transport to get to Australia nor did they have suitable weapons to colonize the Aboriginals of Australia. Another fact is that the Austronesian and Polynesian people were only interested in the affairs of their tribes and people, they did not care about the affairs of the outside world.

Answer:

C) improvement in the standard of living for all people

Explanation:

In industrialized countries, the period 1870-1890 was the era of the most rapid economic growth in their history. Due to the sharp increase in labor productivity and falling prices for consumer goods, the lifestyle has been significantly improved. Improving transport and accelerating trade has prevented hunger in the event of crop failure in certain regions. In the industrial era, a mass education system was formed. In general, the standard of living of the population as a result of the industrial revolution has grown. Improving the quality of food, sanitary conditions, the quality and accessibility of health care has led to a significant increase in life expectancy and a drop in mortality.
