When did displaced Europeans come to Australia in large numbers?

  1. Post World War I

  2. Post World War II

  3. Post Vietnam War

  4. Post Cold War

The correct answer is: Post World War II

Displaced Europeans came to Australia in large numbers after World War II due to the devastation and displacement caused by the war. After World War II, many European countries were struggling to rebuild and provide opportunities for their citizens, leading to a large number of Europeans migrating to Australia for a better life. The other options, such as post World War I, post Vietnam War, and post Cold War, do not line up with the timing of mass European migration to Australia. Post World War I was a period of economic growth and prosperity, leading to less displacement and migration. Post Vietnam War and post Cold War happened much later, with different geopolitical contexts and less impact on European migration to Australia.
