Summary The study begins with a statistical analysis to determine whether there is today, or has been historically, an overriding Anglo ancestry in Australia. It also attempts to quantify: Aboriginal population in the first decades after colonisation in 1788; past and present convict ancestry; and current ethnic composition in Christian and non-religious affiliations. An insight is gained into the future of the country's ancestral and religious composition around 2050, including prospective political battle lines and alliances
