Australia inspired in own history ?

From Wikipedia:

Indigenous Australians have inhabited the continent for approximately 65,000 years
The European maritime exploration of Australia commenced in the early 17th century with the arrival of Dutch explorers.

Following the loss of its American colonies in 1783, the British Government sent a fleet of ships, the First Fleet, under the command of Captain Arthur Phillip, to establish a new penal colony in New South Wales. A camp was set up and the Union flag raised at Sydney Cove, Port Jackson, on 26 January 1788, a date which later became Australia's national day. Most early convicts were transported for petty crimes and assigned as labourers or servants to "free settlers" (non-convict immigrants). While the majority of convicts settled into colonial society once emancipated, convict rebellions and uprisings were also staged, but invariably suppressed under martial law. 
Officially, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland declared its claims to the western part of Australia in 1829. Van Diemen's land, now known as Tasmania, was settled by the British (mostly convicts) in 1803, and became a separate British colony in 1825. Other independent colonies were created from parts of New South Wales: South Australia in 1836, Victoria in 1851 and Queensland in 1859. The Northern Territory was founded in 1911 by excluding South Australia. South Australia was founded as a "free province" and was therefore never a penal colony. The provinces of Victoria and Western Australia were also founded as "free", but later adopted convict transports. Transport to New South Wales was stopped in 1848 after protests from residents.
The indigenous population declined for 150 years following settlement, mainly due to infectious disease.Thousands more died as a result of frontier conflict with settlers. A government policy of "assimilation" beginning with the Aboriginal Protection Act 1869 resulted in the removal of many Aboriginal children from their families and communities (referred to as the Stolen Generations) a practice which also contributed to the decline in the indigenous population.
Australia is a federal parliamentary constitutional monarchy. The country has maintained a stable liberal democratic political system under its constitution, which is one of the world's oldest, since Federation in 1901. It is also one of the world's oldest federations, in which power is divided between the federal and state and territorial governments. The Australian system of government combines elements derived from the political systems of the United Kingdom (a fused executive, constitutional monarchy and strong party discipline) and the United States (federalism, a written constitution and strong bicameralism with an elected upper house), along with distinctive indigenous features.

More than two hundred years ago, in the early19th century, Australia became a giant camp for convicts, petty thieves, etc., who began to serve free immigrants there.
From a continent that began its modern history as a place for outcasts, most remote from their original homeland, Australia developed in a continent with an extremely high economic level . Gradually, it became not a forced, but a desirable refuge for immigrants from many parts of the world who have found a new, freer and more successful life in Australia.

But the old roots seem to bear new shoots now. Newcomers, even if they want to visit Australia only briefly undergo an extraordinary risk that they become hostages, prisoners of the regime. The  Australian citizens are incredibly constrained because of the hysterical fear of the covid epidemic, the origin and true purpose of which are the political leaders of the country unable or unwilling to uncover.

Australia thus becomes once again a kind of giant prison almost impermissibly isolated from the rest of the world. Although the country tries to pretend that its actions are absolutely logical, adhering to democratic rules and allowing so-called normal life and contact with the rest of the world, in reality, however, it seems to be returning to its roots in an arc - this time on another, higher and  more sophisticated level of the 21st century.
It should be a warning to the whole world.
Hopefully the spiral of development will soar upwards to better times !

"Advance Australia Fair" is the national anthem of Australia.

Is the fairness evaporating ?
