The People of Australia 
Australia has two different groups of people.
1. the native Australians, called Aborigines, 
and 2. European settlers. The European settlers have come from all over the world to live in this wonderful country. Many people in Australia make their living raising sheep. Agriculture is very important to the Australian economy. With more than 150 million sheep, Australia is the world's largest wool producer. The country supplies 70% of the wool that factories in other countries use to make clothing. Australia is also a large supplier of meat, dairy products, cereals, fruit, vegetables and sugar.  
The Australian Sheep Dog is a popular dog in Australia. This dog is more than a pet, it has an important job herding the sheep.
