 2.The Parliamentary Triangle is made up of all of the capitals significant buildings and landmarks. It has the New and Old Parliament House, The Electoral Education Centre, The Austrlian War Memorial, The High Court of Australia, The Museum of Australian Democracy and The National Museum of Australia and The Governor General's House. 3.The original inhabitants of canberra were the Ngunnawal tribe they used to call it Kamberra or Canberry, it means meeting place. 4.Democracy is when a state is characterized by equal rights and privileges. In Australia we are aloud to vote. 5.The names of the two Parliamentary Houses are the the House of Repersentatives and the Senete. The colours that represent the houses are green (lower house) and red (upper house). 6.The Duke of York opened the Old Parliament House and Queen Elizabeth II opened the New Parliament House. The New Parliament House was built because the Old Parliament house was only meant to be temporary. 7.AIS stands for Australian Institute of Sport. The Australian Institute of Sport was established after the Motreal Olympic Games in 1976 when Australia failed to win any gold medals. 8. 9.My Great Great Grand Father was in the Navy in World War I and his son, my Great Grand Father was in the Navy in World War II. My Nanna's Uncle Fred enlisted in World War I under age despite his parents saying no. He trained but the war ended before he was able to go on active duty. His brother, my Great Great Uncle was in the Army in World War II. 10.The Gallipoli diorama is made out of candle wax and wire. It shows the men runing into battle and dying or getting wounded. 11.the Unknown Soldier is located in the Australian War Memorial. He is unknown because he was blown to pieces and lot his dog tags. They knew he was Australian because of what was left of his uniform. They brought him back to symbolise all of the other unknown soldiers. 12.I liked the New Parliament House the most. The building was interesting and impressive. The materials used to build it were interesting, every material used had a meaning. Some of the mable pillars and floors had microscopic fossils in them. We got to sit and view question time in the House of Representatives and the Senate. We saw Julia Gillard, John Howard, Tony Abbot and Kevin Rudd, they got loud, laughed and argued alot. The Speaker yelled "order, order" when things got out of control and the Prime miniser was told to sit back in her seat. They got three warnings and were sent out of the room for an hour if they did not behave. This is not how I expected the Prime Minister and all of The Representatives to behave. It was like watching a group of naughty children! I thought they would behave more respectfully like in the Senate. This is democracy in action.media type="youtube" key="GWpVy-HyCAY?rel=0" height="200" width="296"
