== European Colonisation ==
Tasmania was first discovered by [[France|French]] explorers attempting to locate a safer passage from the [[Cape of Good Hope]] to [[China]] and [[Japan]]. It wasn't claimed until Captain [[James Cook]] of [[Great Britain]] explored the coast of Australia and found Tasmania to the south. It was settled as Australia's second [[penal colony]] under Tasmania's first Governor, Captain B Newton.
