An Arab Australian is an Australian citizen or resident with ancestry from the Arab world. ==Overview== Arab Australians generally share a common cultural heritage, which originates in the Arabic-speaking countries of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.humanrights.gov.au/sites/default/files/content/racial_discrimination/isma/report/pdf/appendices.pdf )〕 According to the AHRC, most Egyptian (69%), Lebanese (61%) and Syrian (46%) emigrants to Australia settled before 1986. Other MENA populations mainly arrived later during the 1990s, such as Iraqis, Somalis and Sudanese.〔 Although the countries of origin of Arab Australians are all primarily Islamic (>70%), emigrants to Australia from these states belonged to various religious orders. The proportion of Muslims was highest among immigrants from Somalia (97%) and Jordan (40%), followed by Syria (34%) and Iraq (31%). Most Egypt-born and Lebanon-born Australians were Christian Copts (84%) and Maronites (55%), respectively.〔 Arab Australians are mainly concentrated in Victoria and New South Wales. Smaller groups also reside in Queensland, Western Australia and South Australia, with fewer in Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arab Australian」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
