I googled it, and I discover

"The Eureka rebellion is considered by some historians to be the birthplace of Australian democracy. It is the only Australian example of armed rebellion leading to reform of unfair laws. The Southern Cross flag has been used as a symbol of protest by organisations and individuals at both ends of the political spectrum."

Sounds foundational to me. Why shouldn't it count, just because the rebels mostly weren't born in Oz?
