Republicanism and the Eureka Rebellion information


The political significance of the Eureka Rebellion is contested ground. It may be seen simply as a rebellion by miners against burdensome taxation or,[citation needed] as some authors suggest, the first expression of republican sentiment in Australia.[citation needed] Some would suggest the importance of the event has been exaggerated because Australian history does not include a major armed rebellion equivalent to the French Revolution or the American War of Independence.[citation needed] Others maintain that Eureka was a seminal event that marked a major change in the course of Australian history.[citation needed]
