What was the first law in Australia?
This is a trick question. Australia did not exist until federation in 1901. The Constitution was a law passed by British parliament that allowed the colonies to be governed by a federal government. This is AUSTRALIA'S first law technically. If, however, you speak of when the first fleet arrived and formed the colonies... the answer is that all British law was the first law. The doctrine of reception, after applying the concept of Terra Nullius, meant that British law applied to all colonies and its inhabitants. So, you see, there are two different answers depending upon which history context you refer to.

Who was at Botany Bay when the First Fleet arrived?
Botany Bay was home to the local indigenous people, but Botany Bay is not actually where the First Fleet stayed. the Fleet moved north to Port Jackson, home of the Gadigal (sometimes called Cadigal) tribe; the British used the term Eora to refer to the people in this area; Eora describes a language group. Other Aboriginal clans included the Gadigal, Wangal, Wallumedegal, Boromedegal, Gamaragal, Borogegal, Birrabirragal and Gayamaygal. Common languages were Darug, Dharawal and Guringai. It is believed that following European arrival the Cadigals died out within a couple of years following British occupation owing to disease, environmental damage and other factors.
