		Tasmania, state in south-eastern Australia, consisting of the island of Tasmania some 240 km (150 mi) south of the mainland of continental Australia, many nearby small islands, and the uninhabited, subarctic volcanic island of Macquarie.
		Tasmania is bounded on the south and west by the southern Indian Ocean, on the east by the Tasman Sea, and on the north by the Bass Strait separating it from the mainland.
		Founded in 1804, Hobart is Australia's second oldest city and is distinguished by fine colonial architecture and picturesque wharves and warehouses.

		The origin of the expedition is traced, and the ships are carefully followed throughout their voyage, with a view to elicit whether there was, as alleged, a political purpose apart from the scientific work for which the enterprise was undertaken at the instance of the Institute of France.
		Australia is the only considerable portion of the world which has enjoyed the blessed record of unruffled peace.
		The states of Australia were soon left with no grievance which it was not within their own power to remedy if they chose, and virtually as they chose.

	Centenary Article - Crime in twentieth century Australia
		Australia was a less violent society at the end of the twentieth century than it was at the end of the nineteenth or eighteenth centuries.
		In Australia, between 1 July 1989 and 30 June 1999 there were 13 mass-murder incidents (where the number of victims was 4 or more), resulting in the death of 94 persons, though in the two most recent years of the century Australia recorded no mass-murder incidents.
		Prison numbers have increased sharply in Australia in the 1990s, and one line of argument is that changes to our mental health system, and in particular the move to deinstitutionalisation, have put out onto the streets many who would otherwise not be at risk of minor offending and victimisation.

	The fabrication of Aboriginal history by Keith Windschuttle
		Entitled “Australia’s Aboriginal Genocides,” his story was replete with terminology such as “ethnic cleansing” and “transit camps” designed to draw comparisons with the practices of Nazi Germany and contemporary Yugoslavia.
		It remains one of the mysteries of history that Australia was able to get away with a racist policy that included segregation and dispossession and bordered on slavery and genocide, practices unknown in the civilized world in the first half of the twentieth century until Nazi Germany turned on the Jews in the 1930s.
		In Australia, the current overt demand is for a treaty with the rest of the country.

	Convicts To Australia ... Research Guide - Timeline
		WESTERN AUSTRALIA was established when a small British settlement was established at King George's Sound (Albany) by Major Edmund Lockyer who was to provide a deterrent to the French presence in the area.
		Convicts sent to Western Australia were sentenced to terms of 6, 7, 10, 14 and 15 years and some reports suggest that their literacy rate was around 75% as opposed to 50% for those sent to NSW and Tasmania.
		South Australia was never a British convict colony and between 1836-1840 about 13,400 immigrants arrived in the area.

		The word "Australia' had intermittently been used from the early 17th century to describe indeterrninate land masses in the southern hemisphere and had once, in the forms Greater and Lesser Australia, been used to describe a vast swath of the east coast and Pacific islands.
		His general chart of Australia and 14 detailed charts of sections of the coastline were finally published in London in July 1814, the month of his death at the age of 40.
		When Governor Lachlan Macquarie received Flinders' chart in 1817, he decided "Australia" was the appropriate name and began using it in his writings, giving it official sanction, and leading to its general use.

		This chart was completed by Matthew Flinders in 1804, while he was a prisoner in Mauritius, following the termination in the previous year of his—and history’s first—circumnavigation of the great south land, known at that time as New Holland and New South Wales, and frequently referred to as Terra Australis.
		The chart left Mauritius on 14 November 1804 consigned to Sir Joseph Banks in London.
		The chart measures approximately 92cm x 72cm and is held by the UK Hydrographic Office in Taunton, Somerset.

		While these celebrated British and French explorers introduced southern Australia to European science, they were learning about a land that had been deeply understood and cared for by the Kaurna People for tens of thousands of years.
		When Flinders posted his chart to London in November 1804, the British Admiralty rejected the name 'Australia' which he proposed, and when Flinders' chart was finally published in 1814, his title was inverted to read 'Terra Australis or Australia'.
		It was formally adopted for the Commonwealth of Australia in 1901.

		Swymbridge is the epicenter of Yeo lineage and the name "Yeo" one of the oldest names, in contrast with the name Scott, which we now think fairly common but was really scarce in England before the mid 1700's, and then the few families centered around Somerset.
		The Yeo line that Henry came from went to Australia, and the U.S.A. I have been in contact with a Richard Yeo who lives in California.
		Many in Henry's family went to Australia with their cattle, with the hope of more land and a chance to spread out even more.

		For it must be remembered that, although Australia was the latest of the continents to be discovered and peopled by the white race, it is geologically an inconceivably ancient land.
		Sighting the Australian coast opposite the present boundary of Victoria and South Australia on December 3, 1800, the LADY NELSON from this point sailed parallel to a country which, as far as Bass's Westernport, was hitherto unknown, and she was the first vessel to pass through the Strait westward.
		In 1817 Governor Macquarie formally requested that in future Australia should be adopted in despatches; and his successor, Brisbane, to whom a daughter was born in Sydney, named her' Eleanor Australia,' to signify his fondness for the name.

	History of Australian Ornithology
		Gould is a name of childhood nostalgia too – for many people growing up in Australia since 1909, their first introduction to birds was often through the organisation known as the ‘Gould League’.
		The Royal Australasian Ornithologists Union (Birds Australia since 1996) is Australia's oldest national birding organisation, and was one of the major sponsors of the Gould League.
		After several years of research and over 200 interviews, the result is The Flight of the Emu, a major scientific and social history.

		Born 1849, he quickly rose into the NSW parliament and rose to prominence as Speaker of the house (Parliaments version of a referee) A significant figure at the early constitution conventions, he became leader of the federation movement in 1892 and would guide its difficult passage through the NSW and British parliaments.
		From there Hobart (1804), Western Australia in 1829, Melbourne in 1835, South Australia in 1836 emerged, finishing off with the separation of Victoria in 1851 from New South Wales and the establishment of Queensland in 1859.
		Robert Garran, in his history of the Federation movement describes the failure of the British to form an Australian federal government in these early years as "unfortunate, but inevitable", attributing the vast distances, lack of contact and the necessity to seek power and management for their own affairs as preventing any national outlook taking shape.
