Captain Cook did not leave anyone as the first governor of Australia. Cook explored and charted the eastern coast in 1770, and made his recommendations to the English government that the land of "New South Wales" be settled as a penal colony. It was not until 1788 that the first Governor, Arthur Phillip, came with the First Fleet. This occurred nine years after Cook was killed by natives in Hawaii.
