European Settlement of South Australia

European Settlement Of South Australia

The History of South Australia from 1831 to 1842, is the account of the formative years of the province of South Australia from the period of the formation of the South Australian Land Company to the commencement of the Legislative Assembly in 1842. The lands that are now South Australia, were recognised as inhabitable prior to this time, and a series of entrepreneurial propositions, and Acts of the British Parliament resulted in the foundation and settlement of lands in South Australia.
