The east coast of Australia was discovered by Captain Cook in 1770, It was then first used as a colony for convicts !.
Other settlements of a few free settlers began to appear. Of these settlements Sydney was the most important; but other smaller settlements for convicts were in Tasmania, at Brisbane, and on the Swan River in Western Australia.
The early settlers were very cruel2 to the aborigines *, the people who have lived in Australia from the earliest times. They were killed or driven away from their lands.
The discovery of gold in 1851 brought very many people to Australia and the character of the colony began to change. But still, the raising3 of sheep was for a long time the most important occupation for the Australians.
