That's a nationality not an ethnicity, but I empathize nonetheless. As far as I know there are only three human races on the planet: Caucasian, Mongolian and Negroid.

I don't know much about Aussie culture, but if it's like many places outside the US, folks harbor nationality-based prejudices rather than racial/ethnic biases. For example, historically, a Greek didn't give damn whether Turk was black, white or something in between; being a Turk was enough to engender disdain. See what running off with the king's wife will do for a culture, thousands of years of hatred.
