I hope one day people will realise the true story of Colombo too! And the portuguese people can treat him like a national hero, that he was! Yes, Colombo was a portuguese noble who was given a mission by the portuguese king: give the "india" to spain, so portugal could keep the real india for themselves! There are so many facts that prove this, that i cant even explain in one comment.. aconcelho a leitura do Codex 632, a quem ficar interessado.. prometo que vao ficar de boca aberta..

Portugal colonized Timor in 1512, look at a map and see the distance between Australia and Timor. Anyone will easilly realize that is impossible Portugal didnt know about Australia hundreds of years before it was "discovered". There is not even any need for any further evidence.

I haven' t got a doubt that the Portuguese discovered Australia, but I doubt the music used at the end is Portuguese. It sounds totally Spanish... It's so sad people keep mixing the two countries up... Portugal is Portugal, Spain is Spain!!!!!! What's so difficult about it? Be thorough the next time you do a report on the Portuguese or Portugal, for knowledge sake!!! ;)

Considering the Portuguese conquered Malacca in 1511, one would expect they further explored the surrounding territory. The archipelago north of Australia, isn't exactly far from the mainland.

@funseeker08 and before the Dutch, Portuguese Explorers such as Christopher de Mendonca (1520), Pedro Fernandes de Queirós (1606) and Luís Vaz de Torres (1606) were in Australia long before english Pirate Cook.

@LadyNatofGlencoe I am australian, born in early 80's, we were told about Van Diemen and the christening of this land as Van Diemens land before cook made it here. And of course all these boat people were predated by many thousands of years by Australian Aborigines. Nobody really thinks Cook was first, but he brought the fleet and made us what we are now, and thats the important thing to us.

I belive that in 2008 , in Bondi beach , Sydney, some xv century Portuguese coins were found. No discredit to Captain Cook, but the Portuguese were in Australia 200 odd years before the Brits. One has to remember that the population of Portugal was 2 million souls at that time and they were interested in trade, specially spices. Australia didn't have any and the population was aborigenes. No interest at all.

@appleblossom1976 The music is pointless! It's like making a film about England using Dutch or Swedish music! The British are so accurate on one side, on the other they tend to be self-indulgent with their mistakes, errors and prejudices/stereotypes! Then again, who isn't?
