Thankyou! Wow, that's some serious digging. I managed to hunt down that the chance for divorce in Australia in 2007 was around 30%, down from a peak of around 50% in 2000. It was last around 30% in the early 80s. I'm still hunting through some more recent papers on the ABS (Australian Bureau of Statistics) site devoted to "Family Formation and Dissolution"[1] but haven't found anything solid yet. I found many sites with unreferenced figures, and the only referenced figures all came back to the ABS, so I figure that their census data matches the marriage and divorce registrars pretty closely.
