Yes. The Fremantle Prison was built by convicts in the 1850, as was the Fremantle History Museum, constructed in the 1860s.

Most of Western Australia, Australia's largest state, is made up of desert.
None. There were no murderers aboard the First Fleet of convicts to Australia. The convicts were made up of petty thieves, or people convicted of fraud, larceny and burglary. No one convicted of a violent crime was aboard the First Fleet.

Great Britain sent convicts to Australia. To be more specific, it was the British Home Secretary, Thomas Townshend, also known as Lord Sydney, who ordered the transportation of convicts to New South Wales. The city of Sydney, which grew from the first settlement, is named after Lord Sydney.
When the Commonwealth of Australia was founded after Australia began to gain it's independence in 1901, the colony was already called Western Australia. When it was adopted by the federation in 1901, the name was kept and it was made a state. It was most likely called Western Australia because it is on the western side of Australia.
According to the CSIRO, 47.6% of Western Australia is made up of plateaux, that is, plains, hills, ranges and coastal plains in the most western region of the state. 30.4% of Western Australia is made up of sandy desert, whilst the Kimberley Ranges make up 9.9% of the state.

The early settlers in Australia faced a variety of challenges. The Australian bush was a complete mystery and challenge to them. The hardwood trees needed to be cut down for farmland, and this was not easy, as the tools easily broke. To even cut a path through the bush would require machetes. Isolation was a huge factor. Large tracts of land were required to make a living, so settlers had to move away from established areas, and often would not see their neighbours for weeks at a time. There was the constant fear of the indigenous people, the Aborigines, as they were not understood, and were feared as violent, although they rarely attacked unprovoked. The weather was a big factor. The heat and humidity was like nothing any of the early settlers had ever experienced. It was difficult to work in such conditions, but sudden squalls, or thunderstorms, made farming unpredictable.
The First Fleet was not something that was built. The First Fleet was the fleet in which the first permanent settlers travelled to Australia, and it was made up of convicts, marines and officers from England.
Australia is made up of six states and various territories. The biggest state in Australia is Western Australia.
The people who came to Australia in 1788 were the convicts, officers and marines who arrived on the First Fleet. These people made up the first official European settlement in Australia.
