History

The history of Sydney is virtually the early European history of Australia. European settlement dates back to 1788 when the first fleet of convicts and their keepers arrived at Botany Bay to the south of Sydney. A lack of fresh water sent them further north where they discovered Sydney Cove, named after Lord Sydney who was then the Home Secretary of England. They settled in this area, and later dropped the word Cove, and the area became known as Sydney.
