True Australian History Part 2 tells the story of Australia from 1788 onward to the 1890s Federation era. From the colony of New South Wales to the tiny settlement at Risdon Cove which grew to become Tasmania. Australia's history is rich, from martial law declared in 1804 after an attempted Irish uprising (a.k.a the Battle Of Vinegar Hill), to the 1808 coup against Governor Bligh instigated by the NSW Corps and its enablers John Macarthur. Aboriginal ambassador Bennelong travels to UK with Arthur Phillip in the 1890s, returning to Australia ostracised by his own people.
