(A note on the Great Eng's/Sci's: Australia's technically only a century old. If real life were a round of Civ, we'd just be graduating from our initibuilds. As such, we haven't the robust intellectual/engineering/theological/cultural history of a Germany or China or Russia or Babylonia, etc (
yet). The Scientists and Engineers mentioned here are a bit of a free-association affair: Packer, for instance, never used a level or laid asphalt, but he 'engineered' our national development (for better or worse) in other capacities. Again, Lance Hill is really a one-off inventor instead of a real scientist, but hey, we must make do until the emergence of Pax Australiana!)
