Australia: What is the country established by a rogue prisoner (

Who told you that Australia was founded by rogue prisoners? I suggest you know more about world history.

When the British first discovered Australia, they set up a prison near Sydney Harbour to hold British felons and political prisoners.

But you have to understand that these felons may have served as workers, but they did not establish Australia.

After the discovery of Australia, because Australia has a more comfortable climate and abundant resources than Britain, many British nobles immigrated to Melbourne, so Melbourne was once the most developed city in the world, and Melbourne is also the city with the most Gothic architecture except London. In the later period, Sydney's port advantage made Sydney surpass Melbourne and become the largest city in Australia.

What you need to be clear is that prisoners are workers at most, not founders. Some people say that Australia is the offspring of prisoners, which is ridiculous. Can a prisoner sentenced to life imprisonment have descendants?

In fact, if you think about it yourself, Australia is the second country in the world in terms of human development index, the highest in Norway, Switzerland, Canada, Denmark and so on. These countries are characterized by high welfare and extremely high population quality. There are hooligans and rogues in any country. What do you think hooligans and rogues can make?
