To be honest the constitutional monarchy doesn’t bother me that much, but I do believe the country should be secular and that schools should not be allowed to have a religious character.

A not insignificant number were prisoners transported for life for as little as stealing break to feed a starving family. The crimes for which you could be sentenced to transportation increased massively during that period as judges took backhanders to supply the land grabbers with free labour.
Others were trying to escape horrors of war and famine, and were mis-sold the promise of a better life. Transportation costs were often paid by recruiting agents for land grabbers, telling people they would have a job for a few years to pay the debt off, then be given land. Neither actually happened.
The very, very few (let’s call them the 1%) saw the new world as an opportunity to get richer, and employed genocidal maniacs to reach that end, sure.
Not if you’re European.
