here is the 1st passage
Australia’s role in the First World War, or the Great War as it was known until 1939, is
central to the development of modern Australia’s vision of itself in the world. In many ways
it has served to create what is in some ways a second founding of the nation in the Gallipoli
campaign and on the battlefields of France and Belgium. The influence of the war experience
in the First, and Second, World War is evident in the way in which ANZAC day is, perhaps
even more than Australia day, the country’s national day.
When the war broke out in 1914, it was a certainty that, because of longstanding economic,
family and defence ties, Australia, along with New Zealand, would stand alongside Britain.
The then Prime Minister Andrew Fisher was quick to pledge the country’s support to “the
last man, the last shilling”. This was no idle promise and Australia paid a high price for their
loyalty to their colonizers. From a pre-war population of 5m, 417,000 enlisted in the armed
forces, of which 324,000 served abroad. By the end of the war, Australia had lost 60,000
dead and 155,000 men had been wounded. The economic price was also high. The national
debt, which had stood at ₤6m in 1914, was £325m by the end of the war.
It is possible that the first shot of the war was fired in Australia, when a shot was fired across
the bow of the German merchant ship Pfalz as it tried to escape from Port Arthur only a few
hour after the declaration of war. In late 1914 the light cruiser HMAS Sydney sank the
German warship Emden off the west coast of the country. Also early in the war, Australian
troops captured the German radio transmitters in Rabaul and Nauru and conquered all of
German New Guinea.
At first the Australian forces were intended only to defend Australia, but in 1915 the
Australia New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) departed for Europe. Their first stop was
Egypt and it was because they were so close that they were chosen to take part in the
campaign to capture the Gallipoli peninsula, the key to shipping into the Black Sea, from the
Turks. The plan was for British, French and Anzac forces to land on the peninsular at night
at weak points in the Turkish defense. However, strong winds blew the troops off course to
better defended spots and in the advantage was lost. What followed was months of bitter
fighting in which 20,000 British and 7,000 ANZAC soldiers were killed and which ended in
a successful withdrawal, but no gain for the Allies. It was at this moment of history that
Australia was propelled on to the world stage. From this moment onward
