Artist 1927-1946
Prophet 1947-1965 or 1966
Nomad 1966 or 1967 to 1986
Civic 1987 to 2007?
Artist 2008? -

Therefore; Greta Thunberg (2003) is a late Wave Hero, which is an accurate description of her character.

Incorrect regarding Australasia. Australia I have heard of this, but Australasia includes New Zealand which is incorrect for my country.

Tara Marie, I have studied New Zealand history particularly it’s politics, I concluded their turnings in the later 20th and early 21st centuries, have been likely virtually identical to Australia’s. Especially given what I have studied of 1980's New Zealand, the public mood was identical to Australia’s which was a late Awakening one. Especially given that New Zealand, Australia and Britain all went through political revolutions during the 1980's, which all ended around 1990. Since Britain and Australia were in Awakenings in the 1980's, so I highly doubt that New Zealand wasn’t in an Awakening in the 1980's either. Therefore; the end of these political revolutions for all three countries, signified the end of the Awakening and the start of the Unravelling. 
 
Anyway, personally see generational boundaries as often very blurry, therefore; the estimate for the Generation Xer/Millennial equivalent boundary for Australia being 1987, is a best estimate. Because say three years of either side of the boundary, there are those who identify with the generation before or after them or identify as both. However, in my observations those Australians born before 1987 are predominantly Nomads, while those born after 1987 are predominantly Heroes. 


For your information, I was born in 1983 and remember the last years of our last Awakening (which ended around 1989-1990). If I wasn’t familiar with Generational Theory, I would likely consider myself as a Millennial. However, being familiar with Generational Theory, I see myself as a late wave member of a Nomad Generation rather an early wave member of a Hero one. Archetypically I consider myself as a Nomad, with all the best and worst traits that comes with it. Although I have acquired some Artist and possibly Hero traits over the years, so I am no longer a typical Nomad anymore, however my sister born in 1985 is very much a solid Nomad. Also, a lot of my peers I have met personally or public figures I have encountered, are archetypically much more like Nomads than Heroes. 
 
Tara Marie, I ask you a question, what years do Kiwi Boomers believe is part of their generation? I ask this because Aussie Boomers have a very strong sense of generational identity and consider their generation being born from the late 1940's to middle 1960s. Indeed, even some people born in the late 1960s, even consider themselves as Boomers or act more like Prophets than Nomads. The British Generation 68ers have the same opinion as well about who belongs to their generation.
