Colony Of Victoria
The Colony of Victoria was a historical administrative division in Australia that existed from 1851 until 1901, when it federated with other colonies to form the Commonwealth of Australia. Situated in the southeastern corner of the Australian continent, Victoria played a significant role in the country's colonial history and development.

This separation was fuelled by a combination of economic, political, and social factors, with a burgeoning population and a desire for local governance playing crucial roles.

People From Smythesdale, Victoria
The term "the people" refers to the public or common mass of people of a polity. As such it is a concept of human rights law, international law as well as constitutional law, particularly used for claims of popular sovereignty.
