No- it is joined to England along it's Eastern border, although it does have islands of it's own. The largest of these is Anglesey, which is only marginally an island, seperated only by a narrow sea-channel called the Menai Strait and spanned by a bridge built by Thomas Telford in the early 19th Century.

There are also other smaller islands off the Welsh coast, mostly in the South West- these include the monastery island of Caldey, Grassholm, Flatholm, Steepholm and Bardsey.

The settlement of Moreton Bay was separated from New South Wales and established as a new Colony named Queensland (for Queen Victoria) in 1859. On 10 September 1825, the settlement was given the name of Brisbane, and no longer called the Moreton Bay colony, but it was still part of the New South Wales territory.

This act was done in opposition to the wishes of the New South Wales Governor, but the British government decided in favour of a petition from the people of Brisbane and that it would be better done now, than later. In 1859, Queen Victoria signed Letters Patent, which declared that Queensland was now a separate colony from New South Wales. On 6 June 1859, the former Moreton Bay District was granted separation from New South Wales, and given the name of Queensland, with Brisbane as its capital city. The first Governor was Sir George Ferguson Bowen.

They are Australia's two largest cities and each thinks it should be the capital of Australia. They couldn't decide so they set the capital up halfway in between. On the other hand the rivalry only exists in Melbourne as people in Sydney really couldn't care less about what happens in Melbourne however people in Melbourne seem to think and try to prove they are superior to people from Sydney.

The question proceeds from a false assumption. James Cook did not discover Australia; nor was he a Captain at the time he charted the eastern coast.

James Cook was still a Lieutenant in charge of the Endeavour when he charted the eastern coast of Australia and claimed it for Great Britain on 22 August 1770, calling it New South Wales. He charted the east coast between April and August of that year. For this reason, Cook is often wrongly credited with discovering Australia.

It depends on whether the question refers to population or area.

As of late 2010, the population of New South Wales was estimated to be 7,253,000 and the population of South Australia was an estimated 1,648,000.

However, the area of New South Wales is only 800,628 sq km, while the area of South Australia is around 978 810 sq km.

According to the Australian Government Geoscience website, the area of New South Wales is about 800,628 square kilometres, with an additional 14 sq km in islands. The total is 800,642 km2.

This equates to about 309,128 square miles.
