  History
Canberra is the eighth largest city in Australia.
It is 238 km from Sydney and 507 km from Melbourne.   Melbourne was once the capital of Australia. Sydney people also wanted to   make their city the capital. It was difficult for the government to make the   decision. Then in 1911, the government chose a place to build the new   capital. It was between Sydney and Melbourne, the two largest cities in   Australia. It took more than 14 years to build the city. In 1927, the city   was set up. It became the capital and was named Canberra. “ Canberra” means “a   place for friends to get together”.
                                                  Culture
