-------------------------
Brisbane is the capital city of the state of Queensland, Australia. The Brisbane City Council area has approximately 957,010 inhabitants, within a greater urban agglomeration population of 1.77 million people, making it the third most populous metropolitan area in Australia. One of Australia's three main ports, the city's name is pronounced.
Main article: History of Brisbane
The area now called Brisbane was inhabited before European settlement by the Turrbul and Jagera people whose ancestors migrated to the region from across the Torres Strait in ancient times. In 1823 an exploration party led by John Oxley explored Moreton Bay and sailed up the Brisbane River as far as Goodna, some 20 km upstream from what is now Brisbane's central business district. Brisbane was named in honour of Sir Thomas Brisbane, who was the Governor of New South Wales.
In 1824, the colonial administration of New South Wales decided to establish a penal settlement at what is now Redcliffe, on the shores of Moreton Bay. This settlement was soon closed and moved to the present-day site of Brisbane. Non-convict European settlement of the Brisbane region commenced in 1838.
Queensland was proclaimed a separate colony in June 1859 and Brisbane was chosen as its capital. However, Brisbane was not incorporated as a city until 1902.
Over twenty small municipalities and shires were amalgamated to form the City of Greater Brisbane, now known simply as the City of Brisbane, in 1925.
Due to Brisbane's proximity to the South West Pacific Area theatre of the Second World War, the city played a prominent role in the defence of Australia. The city became a temporary home to thousands of Australian and American servicemen, as well as the AMP Building (later called MacArthur Central) being used as the headquarters of General Douglas MacArthur.
Brisbane was host city for the 1982 Commonwealth Games and the World's Fair, Expo '88. These events in the 1980's were accompanied by a scale of public expenditure, consruction and diplomacy not previously seen in the state of Queensland. In the decades since, the metropolis has become Australia's fastest growing city through migration from all continents and the Australian states and territories.
