For politics...

Australia is conformed around the constitutional democracy. The structure that Australian government uses is a constitutional monarchy. The government is divided in three parts: in first place the legislative, that is conformed by the representatives and the senate; secondly is the executive, that is conformed for the councilors (the prime minister and the ministers of state); and finally the judiciary that is conformed by the federal courts.
Australia is composed of two political groups, one is the Australian labor party, and on the other side is the Liberal Party. The Australian labor party was founded in 1891, through the ideals of defending all the Australian people that need to be benefit with all the resources and all the persons receive them equally, have dignity and respect and receive equal opportunities.
Liberal party was founded around the 1943; through the ideals of economic liberalism.

The food...

Australian food was influenced by the British cuisine, because they were the first to colonize the australian territory.
Some of the food that is often associated with Australia includes meat, vegetables and pies. The most popular plates are the meat cake and for dessert the Pavlovian cake, which consist in a refreshing cake with fresh fruits such as kiwi and peach.

Culture....

The first influence to the Australian culture was by the “anglocelit people”. Since some years before the Australian culture was influence by the USA people and for the Asian nearby countries. Australia is characterized by the visual arts, movies, music and television among others.Australians are very friendly and helpful people. They live around the costs, because the inside of the country is mostly deserting and off course there’s lack of water. Most of the people practice different kinds of sports like rugby, surfing, fishing, swimming in general because most of them have the opportunity to go very often to the beach.
