• Explanation for success of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the US:
  • Stable government, peaceful, socially cohesive
  • Colonized with relatively low native populations, allowing for settlement and transplanted culture (British culture in particular)
  • Founders brought democratic traditions, common language, appreciation for education, religious cohesion, settling in resource-rich lands
  • No belligerent neighbors, mostly fought wars outside of home territories
  • Gradual transition to modern states over a couple of hundred years
• Difference in colonizing practices and resulting legacies:
  • In Australia, Aborigines were mistreated, marginalized, and subjected to “Aboriginal hunts.”
  • In New Zealand, Maori were treated with slightly more respect, and the Treaty of Waitangi is unique in dealing with Europeans vs. native peoples.
  • In North America and Australasia, native populations were smaller, and settlers transplanted much of their local, British culture with them.
• Naturally delineated borders play a role in stability: Canada/US separated by a long, artificial border, while Australia/NZ defined mostly by their coastlines and two internal populations of differing numbers and technology.
• Explanation for success of Botswana (compared to less prosperous neighboring countries):
  • Inclusive economic and political institutions, democratic practices
  • Low population, lack of friction between ethnic groups

  • Mostly uninhabitable due to the semi-arid desert interior
  • Difficult and expensive to get to, especially compared to places like Florida
  • Indigenous Australians’ nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyle didn’t promote population growth factors like the agricultural revolution seen in other countries today
  • Racist immigration policies limited non-white migration up to the early 70s
• Most of the population lives in coastal cities due to the interior being semi-arid/desert and difficult to populate
• Aborigines live in sparsely populated areas that were inhabited by peoples that regularly needed to continue nomadic lifestyles just to survive
