interested in changing it into a colony than in exploring it.As in the early history of the United States，it was the English who set up the settlements in Australia.This history and geography of these two British colonies have some other things in common as well.Australia and the United States are about the same in size，and their western lands are both not rich in soil.It was the eastern coast of Australia and America that the English first settled，and both colonies soon began to develop towards the west.However，this westward movement took place more because the English were searching for better land than because the population was increasing.Settlements of the western part of both countries developed quickly after gold was discovered in America in 1849 and in Australia two years later.Although the development of these two countries has a lot in common，there are some unusual differences as well.The United States got its freedom from England by revolution while Australia won its independence without having to go to war.Australia，unlike the United States，was firstly turned into a colony by English prisoners and its economic development was in the wheat growing and sheep raising.By 1922，for example，Australia had fifteen times more sheep than it had people or almost half as many sheep as there are people today in the United States.Yet，in spite of these and other differences，Australia and the United State have more in common with each other than either one has with most of the rest of the world.1Who turned Australia into a colony?ABritain.BSeveral European
