Unix time uncertainty

I have a gap in Unix time understanding. Unix time started to be counted on 1/1/1970 but in what timezone? Say it´s 31st of December 1969 11p.m. in London (-3600 Unix time) In Sidney they have 8 a.m. 1st of January 1970 (28 800 Unix time) in the same time. So my question is when did they start counting Unix time? 1/1 1970 of what timezone?

Thank you
