South Australia seems to be one of the few places that is still getting a lot of inmigration from Great Britain. Interesting that Perth is actually older than Miami, Las Vegas, or Los Angeles as mayor cities.

What happened with Tasmania in 1825?

(Edit: Or was it actually still one state, just not contiguous? Because the color change to red makes it look like it became two separate states.)

New Zealand was a part of New South Wales from 1787-1840, so technically this is another [r/mapswithoutnewzealand](https://www.reddit.com/r/mapswithoutnewzealand/?rdt=58415)
