'Aussies' and the national pride in theirparadise. The symbols reflect the different
aspects of Australian culture, history and life.
The best known Australian symbols are:

the flags submitted to thecompetition and designed by people from all over
theworld.
The Australian Coat of Arms is the official emblem of theAustralian Government.

ityou can see the shields of the six Australian statessurrounded by two of the
country's typical animals: thekangaroo and the emu.

composed by Peter DoddsMcCormick in 1878 and proclaimed the national
anthemin 1984. The lyrics of the song express the happiness and pride of being
Australian.
Customs
Customs
One of the quintessential Australian traditions is Australia Day.
Every January 26, the cities of Australia fill withflags and party to
commemorate the arrival of the British in 1787. Throughout the
day, barbecues are organized in the parks and beaches, and there
are many fireworks.

In India, cows are worshiped, and in Australia, insects are loved.

Yes, it's one of the weirdest Australian traditions, but Aussie
people respect nature like their mothers. So killing a spider or an
ant would make you look like a serial killer.
One of the Australian traditions is to surf at any time of the day.
This is not uncommon, because on the beaches of Australia (Bondi
Beach, Manly Beach…), the waves reachseveral meters in height. On
top of that, for Aussies, anyexcuse is a good one to be in the sun.
