History of Sydney

The site of the first British colony in Australia, Sydney was established in 1788 at Sydney Cove by Arthur Phillip, commodore of the First Fleet, as a penal colony. commonly known as Sydney Harbour, where the iconic Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge feature prominently.

There has traditionally been a rivalry between Sydney and Melbourne since the gold rushes of the 1850s and it continues to be the largest city in Australia. With a great number of financial institutions including the headquarters of the Reserve Bank, surpassed Melbourne as the nation's financial capital. Throughout the 20th century, especially in the decades immediately following World War II, Sydney continued to expand as large numbers of European and later Asian immigrants took up residence in the metropolitan area.

Sydney is a high ranking world city and has hosted multiple major international sporting events, including the 1938 British Empire Games (now known as the Commonwealth Games) and the 2000 Summer Olympics.

The population is 4.6 million approx.
