Van Diemen’s Land, (1642–1855), the southeastern Australian - TopicsExpress

Van Diemen’s Land, (1642–1855), the southeastern Australian island colony that became the commonwealth state of Tasmania. Named for Anthony van Diemen, governor general of the Dutch East Indies, the island was discovered and named in 1642 by Abel J. Tasman, a celebrated navigator under Van Diemen’s command. The first British settlers in the early 19th century retained the name. After being a part of the colony of New South Wales since 1803, Van Diemen’s Land became a separate colony in 1825. It achieved self-governing status in 1855–56. Associated with that development was the long-foreshadowed name change to Tasmania. Since then, “Van Diemen’s Land” has generally evoked the brutalities of convict transportation and ethnic conflict (see Black War). However, the term is sometimes invoked with nostalgia, even affection. https://youtube/watch?v=ux8qXTZetk4
