Australia. The Maralinga people had lived on their land for tens of thousands of years. The close relationship of the Aborigines with their country was questioned by colonization that attempted to group them into a Mission (1920), by the construction of the railway, and by the choice of these lands for British nuclear tests (1953-63). This people never accepted giving up their land and fought to return to it, to have it decontaminated and to rebuild communities there.
