Sturt's desert pea is found through all of Australia's mainland states except Victoria. However, it is the floral emblem of South Australia, so is most commonly associated with that state.
What are the inland capitals of South Africa?
South Africa has three capital cities: Pretoria (inland) Bloemfoentein (inland) Cape Town (coastal)
Who solved the puzzle of the western rivers?
This puzzle was solved by Captain Charles Sturt in 1829-30, when he followed the Lachlan River into the Murrumbidgee, and the Murrumbidgee into the Murray, then followed the Murray to Lake Alexandrina.
What is the floral emblem of SA?
Sturt's desert pea, Swainsona formosa is the floral emblem of South Australia.
When was Inland with Sturt created?
Inland with Sturt was created in 1951.
Was Charles Sturt A governor?
No, Charles Sturt was never a Governor of Australia. He was an inland explorer.
Did Charles Sturt find an inland sea?
No. Charles Sturt could not find something that did not exist. Australia has no inland sea. Sturt remained convinced for most of his life that Australia's interior should hold an inland sea. After all, the other major continents had inland seas. Australia could only boast extensive salt lakes and salt pans.
What was Charles Sturt looking for?
Charles Sturt was certain that Australia must have an inland sea. The journeys Sturt undertook to follow the course of the westward-flowing rivers of New South Wales were also to determine whether or not there was an inland sea. Even many years after Sturt had discovered the course of the rivers, he ventured north into central Australian desert in search of the inland sea which, of course, does not exist.

When did Charles Sturt come to Australia?
Charles Sturt was sure there had to be an inland sea in Australia. Even though he solved the riddle of the westward-flowing rivers (which, unlike rivers on other continents, did not flow towards the coast), and found that the inland river system did not lead to an inland sea, this was something Sturt continued to search for. Fifteen years after his major expedition which traced the Murray River, Sturt still believed there had to be an inland sea, and travelled into the desert country of central Australia - but of course, he never found an inland sea.
Did Charles Sturt's expedition fail?
No, Charles Sturt's expedition in 1828 did not fail. While he did not find an inland sea as he had hoped, Sturt successfully explored and mapped a significant portion of inland Australia, making important contributions to the understanding of the continent's geography.
What was Charles Sturt searching for?
Charles Sturt was searching firstly for a solution to the riddle of Australia's inland-flowing rivers, and for an inland sea. Australia's rivers did not follow the pattern of the rivers of other continents: they seemed to flow away from the coast rather than towards it, and Sturt was determined to solve the mystery of where they went. He was convinced that a continent as large as Australia must contain an inland sea (which it does not), but he found that the inland rivers ultimately flowed into the Murray, which had its mouth on the southern coastline.
What is the duration of Inland Empire film?
The duration of Inland Empire - film - is 3 hours.
What did Charles Sturt discover about the inland sea?
He proved many people wrong in discovering that there was no inland sea, it was just a myth. Actually, Charles Sturt never conclusively proved there was no inland sea. He continued to believe in its existence until he died. Sturt certainly proved that inland New South Wales was not a gigantic inland sea. However, central Australia was huge, and he was only able to prove one section of it was not an inland sea. The belief in the inland sea that Edward Eyre had perpetuated in 1840-41 when he was blocked by a series of saltpans persisted for at least another twenty years, and Sturt's expedition to find the inland sea in 1844-45 did not cover anywhere near the territory that explorers such as John McDouall Stuart, William Gosse, Peter Warburton and Ernest Giles covered. It was really only when the last of the desert explorers completed their journeys in the 1870s that the myth of the inland sea was dispelled for once and for all.
When did Charles Sturt find the inland sea?
Charles Sturt never found the inland sea, for the simple reason that Australia does not have an inland sea.Charles Sturt and other early Australian explorers believed an inland sea existed because of the unusual behaviour of the rivers. Most rivers flow towards the coastline. However, the rivers of New South Wales on the western side of the Great Dividing Range all flowed away from the coast. The logical deduction was that they flowed to an inland sea. It was Charles Sturt who discovered that so many of the rivers flowed to tributaries of the Murray River, which then took almost a 90 degree turn south to the Southern Ocean.Although Sturt's journey down the Murray proved that the river system flowed to the southern coast, Sturt still remained convinced for most of his life that Australia's interior should hold an inland sea. After all, the other major continents had inland seas. In essence, Australia does - Lake Eyre - but not a permanent inland sea like the Great lakes of North America. Sturt, however, did not even find lake Eyre. This discovery was made by Edward Eyre, who believed that a large, horseshoe-shaped inland sea existed when he was unable to find the breaks between the many salt lakes in northern South Australia.
Why is Charles Sturt's name remembered in New South Wales universities?
Sturt's name is remembered for the significant role he played in Australian exploration. He solved the mystery of where the inland rivers of New South Wales flowed. (Because they appeared to flow towards the centre of the continent, the belief was held that they emptied into an inland sea.) Sturt first traced the Macquarie River as far as the Darling, which he named after Governor Darling. The following year Governor Darling sent Sturt to trace the course of the Murrumbidgee River, and to see whether it joined to the Darling. Sturt followed the Murrumbidgee in a whaleboat and discovered that the Murrumbidgee River flowed into the Murray (previously named the Hume), which in turn flowed to the southern ocean. Sturt's explorations opened up the inland waterways for river and paddlesteamer transportation, thus enabling new settlement throughout inland NSW.
