 | | New South Wales (NSW) is Australia's most populous and oldest state, located in the south-east, north of Victoria and south of Queensland. |
 | | During the 19th century large areas were successively separated to form the British colonies of Tasmania (1825), Victoria (1851), Queensland (1859), and South Australia (which at that time included what is now the Northern Territory). |
 | | The state is bordered on the north by Queensland, on the west by South Australia, and on the south by Victoria. |
