In 2006, Australia and the Netherlands celebrated 400 years of contact, marked by Captain Willem Janszoon's 1606 voyage of the Duyfken, which created the first known European chart of what would become Australia. This journey, along with those of subsequent Dutch East Indiamen, led to the naming of various Australian locations, such as Arnhem Land and Tasmania. The relationship between the two nations deepened through significant historical events in the 17th and 20th centuries, including their alliance during the Pacific War, where Dutch and Australian forces fought side by side. The evacuation of Dutch East Indies nationals to Australia and subsequent migration further solidified ties. From the 1950s onward, around 170,000 Dutch nationals relocated to Australia, contributing to its socio-economic and multicultural landscape. Today, approximately 270,000 Australians proudly claim Dutch ancestry. This comprehensive account provides an objective and personal exploration of the complex impacts of migration, marking a significant contribution to the quatercentenary celebration of the relationship between the two countries.…

The relationship started in 1606, when the Dutch vessel Duyfken mapped part of the coast near present day Weipa, Cape York Peninsula, and later the west coast. Traces of early Dutch influence are still found in such Australian place names as Tasmania and Cape Leeuwin. Large numbers of Dutch migrants arrived in Australia as part of the post-war migration from a war-ravaged Europe, and from the former Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia).
