  1. Wow, great find, amazing! 😃 Post horse and cart, probably smells better, except for the farm dray! Max vehicle speed approx 30mph, crossing no worries! Yes, all the ladylike accessories, and a hat, required to visit the city! Australia made the first movie, about Ned Kelly! No nude bathing, peeping or bikinis! Blue Mountains, exclusive home to expensive spa hotels in those days! The Hawkesbury River is still very rugged and undeveloped! Population around 26.2m right now! 4m in 1914 when, 39% volunteered for the Empire in WW1, Spanish Flu in 1918, the Great Depression 1930s, WWII through 1940 - really tough times! Nine months on a ship originally, then 6 months! Travelling to the other side of the world, as a convict, athlete or soldier was an exercise in patience and endurance! Flights stopover in Dubai or Asia, and usually end in Perth or Sydney! 🤔👍

  2. Hobart had trams too, they changed to double Decker buses because of the growing amount of cars! 🤗

  3. That's not "fun", the "added" population do not get along in peace with the other inhabitants! 👎😩 You should go back to Tasmanian administration! 😏

  4.  @markleon411  Two colonies - Van Diemen's Land was discovered and named first! Hobart has older buildings! A tiny invasion of one cove by 1,000 exhausted people does not make it a city or first colony! 🤨 Victoria was so small and insignificant, it was run by administrators in Launceston! 😏

  5.  @markleon411  Insults are so unnecessary, read it (Tasmania) "Van Diemen's Land was discovered first"! (in 1642) Argue with Melbourne instead, they love it! .. Read history! A single cove comprising of 730 chained, starving, desparate people of all ages and many nations and languages, with a few volunteer soldiers and brutal guards, is not a "city" or a "colony" (or a foreign military invasion)! YOU do the maths! 🤨😠

  7.  @markleon411  You missed the fact that Indonesians, Chinese, Polynesians, Indians, Dutch, French, etc had already integrated with the Aboriginals over 1000 years before Brittain discovered the East Coast of Terra Australis - the Dutch had also traded, integrated and fought with Aboriginals on their New Holland! The convicts consisted of French, African, American, Irish, Scots and English - babies, children, wives etc! Multicultural not British, not an army! .. What are pure Aboriginals? Which specific people from what specific tribe were murdered by the "first colony", are also a legitimate questions? .. 1st Settlers, that would be the Dutch, or was that the New Guineans or Africans? 🤔

  8.  @markleon411  Hooray for New South Wales! 😵 History is much more complex than that, the Sydney colony almost starved to death, only Tasmania had fertile land for growing food, at that time, and actual proper buildings - that was a land grab for survival! 😏 Tasmania has actually retained its Dutch name, and its Dutch and French heritage! 🥱 I grew up on the banks of the Huon (French) River! 😄 Tasmania administered Victoria too! 👍
