Nah... it indicates that times haven't really changed...you used the same clue. It also indicates your geography teacher was a real d!ck.Archimedes said:

Well madtuna, looks like the pupil took after the teacher. A right Richard Cranium.

With all due respect Ward, yep I agree this is the history thread and should be kept to the theme.
BUT no thread be it the history thread or any other thread should there be any excuse for racism. The clue was distinctly racist and should not be tolerated by anyone.
I will call it out every time no matter where I see it. My late wife was indigenous, what he would call a "coon". Forgive me if it gets right up my nose.

Ward69, so you say "come on, this topic is about history". If you've learned so much about history from this topic it just goes to show that your education was severely lacking. You can just shrug off snide little racist comments because it does not effect you, well good for you, but you do not have to put up with this belittling sort of crap that relates to your culture and history.
Don't preach to me about keeping to a theme. I will call out racism where ever I see it because it is a cancer on society, and if you have a supremacist attitude then there is a supposed gold forum that caters to such hateful rubbish. You are old enough to know better.

Gentlemen, my sincerest apologies, I can see that the answering of this question has caused some angst and this was definitely not my intention, I like Madtuna have an indigenous relative, my recently arrived grand daughter whom I love dearly.
Can we please move the Australian History topic forward, if we cant, that would be a great shame.
Once again my apologies if I have caused anyone any offense.

All good Ward and Manpa thanks.
My problem was not with either of you pair but with Archimedes. He said it was from a list of about 39 questions, but he chose that one. He also stated he knew it might be controversial but still chose that one.
He also mentioned political correctness, it's nothing to do with political correctness - something I'm often not real good at nor a fan of. It's pure racism, something that can't be tolerated and needs to be called out when ever it rears it's ugly head.
I agree, lets get the thread back where it should be.
