Tasmania

Originally named Van Diemen's Land, Tasmania was initially settled as a penal colony. Convicts were sent the directly from England, while the worst convicts in Sydney were also transferred there, to locations like Port Arthur, Sarah Island or Maria Island. These colonies were working penal colonies, taking advantage of the need for logging, but the harshness of the conditions, and the fact that more murderers were sent there, led to them developing a reputation for cruelty.

During the course of early European settlement, other terrible things were done to the island. The entire race of full-blooded Tasmanian Aborigines was wiped out, as they were relocated to offshore stands where they were not given the care they were promised. This was to enable to white settlers to move in, without the threat of conflict with the Aborigines. There had already been one major conflict between Europeans and Aborigines, at the "battle of Risdon Cove", where the indigenous people were massacred.

Not content with removing all the indigenous people, the white settlers then turned to exterminating two unique species: the Thylacine, often known as the Tasmanian tiger, and the Tasmanian devil. Both animals were hunted down as livestock killers, but during the 1900s, protective measures were put in place, and the Tasmanian devil was brought back from the brink of extinction. protection came too late for the Thylacine, however, and the last known specimen died in 1936.

Summer in Australia is caused by the same actions that cause summer elsewhere across the Earth. It is caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the Sun. The way the Earth is angled towards the Sun at any given time of the year causes an increase or decrease in the number of daylight hours: summer is caused by an increase in daylight hours and a more vertical angle of sunlight.

Yes, but it became an island about 35,000 years ago.

No it didn't. 35,000 years ago Tasmania was still joined to mainland Australia and was populated by Aboriginals. By around 12,000 years ago the sea had separated Tasmania from the mainland and cut off any interaction between Tasmanian Aboriginals and those on the mainland. The result of this separation was some superficial differences between the two groups.

There are over 1200 police officers in the Tasmanian police force. The force was established in the year 1899. Presently the 1200 officers serve a population of about 500,000 people.

Logging in Tasmania started from the early 1800s, at least as early as the 1820s. Early convict settlements, such as those at Macquarie Harbour and Port Arthur employed convicts in the logging trade.

Tasmania is an island and state of the country of Australia.

The first convicts arrived in Tasmania when Lieutenant-Governor David Collins moved most of an unsuccessful convict settlement from the Mornington Peninsula to Tasmania, and established a convict colony on the Derwent River on 16 February 1804.
