This is not really a question, I'm just wondering if any of you knew of this since the people i ask don't know ( all except one ), not even Aussies.

But in 1890, some communist Australians left Australia for Paraguay where they colonized a small part and named it New Australia, it didn't last long since the ring leader banned native girls , alcohol and was racist.
anyway there's a video of it here if you're interested or didn't know about it, but they interview the small community today that still exists.
It's not communist nowadays though.

the title reads Peru, but it's a mistake on the posters part.
