Summary of what is written below: European Exploration and Prison for Prisoners Back then Britain's jails were over populated and Britain needed a new place to send all of it's prisoners. Australia was a small continent and many officials believed that Australia was the best place to keep prisoners. When the prisoners reached Australia they were set free and had to be independent and find there own food, clothes, shelter, etc. These prisoners were not big crime makers in fact most were sent to jail for small thefts. Sometimes taking a newspaper or steeling a candy from a candy shop. Some were innocent but there was no proof to prove that so they were still sent to jail. Also as European Exploration was becoming more and more popular and many Kings and Queens started investing. Explorers from the more powerful countries from all over Europe had also started to explore lands that were not yet mapped. Australia was mapped however, not much was known about it so explorers started to explore.

After the collapse of the Roman Empire in the west, many Germanic people from outside the former Empire began to migrate westwards. This is known as the Migration Period, because of the movement of large numbers of people across Europe at the same time. The Romans had previously hired mercenary Saxon, Frisian and Frankish troops to help defend the province of Britannia; from around 449 AD these tribes and elements of the Jutes, Angles, Wends and others decided to migrate to the rich farmlands of southern England, simply because they were mainly farming people themselves. Together, these people are known today as Anglo-Saxons. By the 6th century they were advancing into Wiltshire and towards the good farmland in Devon and Somerset - they had already established themselves in the Midlands and the eastern counties.
Australia
England did not travel to migrate to Australia. England stayed exactly where it is now. Any of the English people who migrated to Australia, however, travelled by ships in the early years of Australian settlement. The very first English people to settle Australia were the convicts, officers and marines who came on the First Fleet.
