Historical evolution of Canberra:

Canberra is a young city. As early as 100 years ago, it was still a barren land in the foothills of Kosi Asco, Australia. It was discovered in 1820, and later immigrated to build a pasture. 1840 developed into a small town.

190 1 year, after the establishment of the Australian federal government, the two major cities, Sydney and Melbourne, argued endlessly about the issue of building the capital, which lasted for 89 years. Until 19 1 1, the federal government passed a resolution to choose a place with good weather and mountains and water between the two cities to build a new one. This is the prototype of Canberra.
