mar 12, 1913 - 10. Founding of Canberra

Description:

In March 1913 The making of Canberra had begun after 14 long years of building in 1927 Canberra had finished building.

After a long debate between Melbourne and Sydney over who should’ve been named capital, Canberra was named capital of the nation (Australia) by Lady Denman or the governor-general's wife. While Canberra was developing the building and making was delayed due to world war 2 and the political problem of the great depression.

When Canberra was formed only 2000 people lived in the community, by 2020 Canberra had around 400,000 people living here.
