Can someone show me on a map where "the west" starts?

It's less a geographical or hemispheric distinction, and more a political one.

This page on imperial core is good.

Technically, Australian's aren't colonisers; they're victims of British colonisation.

I presume whenever u say american u always mean amerindians and never anglo-americans.

I don't truly call Australian Aboriginals "Australians", I was being facetious.

Also, I call them "Native Americans".
