Please don't do that. Describing tribes as "nations" is a silly neologism when they did it in North America, and it's even sillier when applied to the even more primitive social structures that existed in pre-colonisation Australia.
- fit2rule 9y agoSorry, but no. The only thing primitive about the first nation of peoples that inhabited the land which later came to be known as "Australia", is that they were massacred and brought into non-existence by the invasion of white Europeans who, still yet today it seems, even still seem to think that their way of life is superior, and therefore anything otherwise is utterly inferior. However, this is a matter of great debate.
