Australia did not exist before 26 January 1788 - Part 2: Establishing the Settlement. (Rev. 2024)
Part 2: Establishing the settlement (Revised Feb. 2024)
Once Captain Arthur Phillip had chosen Sydney Cove in Port Jackson for the place of British settlement, he did not delay ordering the First Fleet to remove there. He arrived in the Sirius before the rest of the fleet on the evening of 25 January 1788. The next morning, on the 26th, he rowed ashore and with his contingent of men carried out the fundamental act of establishing a new nation. The formal acts would follow on 7 February. These are described in detail at the same time demonstrating in philosophical and historical terms the legitimacy of the act of establishment.
