Van Diemen's Land, now known as Tasmania, was first settled by Europeans in 1803. The British established a penal colony there, which began to develop significantly throughout the 19th century. The island saw increased population growth and infrastructure development as it became a center for agriculture and timber production. Key settlements, such as Hobart and Launceston, were founded during this period, contributing to its growth and development.

Tasmania or back then it was known as Van Diemens Land.

Van Diemen's land (now Tasmania) was first circumnavigated by sea explorers George Bass and Matthew Flinders.
The primary reason for establishing another penal colony in Van Diemen's Land was to offset the chances of the French establishing a foothold in Australian territory. The French were already planning to establish a settlement in the south, so the British moved to stake a claim on Van Diemen's Land as an extension of its territory.
The city of Hobart, Tasmania's first settlement, began as a penal colony at Risdon Cove on the Derwent River in Van Diemen's Land in 1803. A year later it was moved to its current location at Sullivan's Cove.
I'm not going to tell you
There were not six penal colonies in Australia. Only New South Wales, Moreton Bay (later Queensland), Van Diemen's Land and Port Phillip (briefly) were penal colonies. Perth, a free settlement, asked for convicts 15 years after it was settled, while South Australia remained convict-free right from the beginning.
Land Settlement Association was created in 1934.
The Watauga Settlement in East Tennessee was founded by a group of early American settlers, primarily led by James Robertson and John Sevier. Established in the mid-1770s, the settlement was one of the first organized communities in the region, driven by the desire for land and opportunity. It played a significant role in the westward expansion and the eventual formation of the State of Tennessee.
