At Federation in 1901, Australia stands as a beacon to the world - A new nation with a Utopian vision.

It is a fundamental contradiction that will take almost a century of extraordinary evolution to try and overcome. Immigration Nation - The Secret History of Us - will track this dramatic saga through Australia's untold immigration story.
