M ELBOURNE A USTRALIA Information about Melbourne By Pearl Bergin

I NTERESTING INFO Melbourne was founded in 1835 by settlers from Launceston in Van Diemen's Land. It was named by Governor of New South Wales Sir Richard Bourke in 1837 in honour of the British Prime Minister of the day, William lamb 2 nd viscount Melbourne. Melbourne was officially declared a city by Queen Victoria in 1847.During the Victorian gold rush of the 1850s, it was transformed into one of the world's largest and wealthiest cities. It is also home to the world's largest tram network. Melbourne Airport, the main passenger airport, is the second busiest in Australia and the Port of Melbourne is Australia's busiest seaport for containerised and general cargo.

E ARLY HISTORY Before the arrival of European settlers, the area was occupied for an estimated 31,000 to 40,000 years by 20,000 hunter-gatherers from three indigenous regional tribes: the Wurundjeri, Boonwurrung and Wathaurong. The first European settlement in Victoria was established in 1803 on Sullivan Bay, near present-day Sorrento, but this settlement was abandoned due to a perceive lack of resources. It would be 30 years before another settlement was attempted.

G OLD RUSH The discovery of gold in Victoria in 1851 led to the Victorian gold rush, and Melbourne, which served as the major port and provided most services for the region, experienced rapid growth. Within months, the city's population had increased by nearly three-quarters, from 25,000 to 40,000 inhabitants. Thereafter, growth was massive and by 1865, Melbourne had overtaken Sydney as Australia's most popular city. During the 1880s Melbourne had become the richest city in the world, and the largest after London in the British Empire.
