Best Answer

Australia as a nation did not exist when the First Fleet arrived - it was called either Terra Australis, New Holland or New South Wales. In consequence there was no Australian Navy (that came in 1911, 123 years later).

Two Royal Navy ships were part of the First Fleet - HMS Sirius and HMS Supply.

Where did the First Fleet sail from and why?

The First Fleet sailed from Portsmouth, England because that was where a large natural harbour lay, on the southern coast of England. It was a major naval port, and capable of easily holding the eleven ships of the First Fleet. Although not the closest port to London, the capital city, it was certainly the largest, most navigable port, and a logical choise for the First Fleet to depart from.The First Fleet sailed with a load of around seven hundred convicts bound for New South Wales on the Australian continent, to establish a penal colony there. This would alleviate the problem of overcrowded prisons in England.
