Matthew Flinders was a sea explorer whose voyages made significant contributions in history, particularly in Australia.
Flinders travelled with Bass to circumnavigate the island of Van Diemen's Land (now Tasmania), proving it was an island and not conned tend to the mainland as had been previously thought. By proving the existence of what is now called Bass Strait, their journey reduced travelling time from England by a full week.
Flinders's main voyage was the circumnavigation of the Australian continent. During this journey, he charted the Australian coastline and filled in the gaps left by previous English and Dutch explorers. It was very important for improving the knowledge of the Australian continent. It was also important because, while charting the southern coastline, Flinders became the first to put forward the possibility of establishing a settlement on the southern coast.
