The Historical Evolution of Victoria
1770, an Englishman named james cook led the ship Endeavour and first discovered the Victoria coast. Since then, explorers have come here from Europe and established their settlements. Before Europeans came to Victoria, there were aborigines living here. Because Victoria has vast grasslands, the economy is mainly animal husbandry.

1830, Victoria became a part of New South Wales. With the continuous development of animal husbandry, Victoria's economic strength has been continuously enhanced.

185 1 year, due to the discovery and establishment of a large number of gold mines near Boellert and Bendigo, Victoria experienced the first peak of multicultural migration. Early Chinese workers called Melbourne the New Golden Mountain (hence the name San Francisco, a big city in Northern California). 1 In July, Victoria broke away from the rule of New South Wales and set aside an area of more than 200,000 square kilometers (equivalent to Britain), becoming the smallest state in Australia, but at the same time becoming a British colony.

From 185 1 to 186 1, the population increased from 77345 to 540322, with an average annual increase of 21.46%; By 189 1, the population will reach 1, 140653, of which the urban population is 490896. At the same time, Victoria's industrial and agricultural production and economic trade have also developed rapidly.

190 1 year, Australia established the federal government and Victoria became a state of Australia. After World War II, in order to develop resources and economy, the Australian government adopted a large-scale immigration policy, and Victoria experienced the second multicultural immigration peak, thus promoting the rapid economic development of the state.
