Before the British settlement, the Adelaide area was inhabited by the Kaurna aboriginal tribe (pronounced ´´Garner´´ or ´´Gowna´´). This tax was established from Cape Jervis in the country to Port Wakefield in the north. Among his custom was controlling forest fires in the Adelaide Hills, Adelaide Hills. In 1852, the total number of the Kaurna tribute was 650 in the Adelaide region, steadily decreasing. During the winter months, they moved to the Adelaide Hills for a better life and better wood.



South Australia was officially considered a new British province on December 28, 1836, near the Old Gum Tree in what is now the North Glenelg Quarter. This day is commemorated as Proclamation Day in South Australia. The place where the capital of the colony is located, the establishment of Colonel William Light, the first general superintendent of South Australia, through the design made by the architect George Strickland Kingston. from Catania: «The two main streets intersect at right angles in the square in a direction from north to south and from east to west. They are spacious and spacious with around a million square meters, and they are becoming the basis of the Adelaide urban plan. William Light chose, in opposition, a place near the Torrens river. ´´The Vision of Light´´, as it was called, has the meaning that Adelaide's initial design has required some modifications over the years, creating and thriving. In general, in a city with more bad cities it was necessary to add parks and give more space to the bigger trucks, which Adelaide has been hiding from the beginning.



Adelaide was established as the center of the colony for an immigrant liberation project, promising civil liberties, religious freedom, based on the ideas of Edward Gibbon Wakefield. Wakefield is aware that the eastern part of the colonies suffers from a lack of available manpower.





Adelaide (Adelaide, in English) is the capital and the largest city of the state of South Australia, and the largest farm in Australia, with a population of 1,158,259 inhabitants according to the 2007 census. Part of the Indian Ocean, in the Adelaide Heights, north of the Fleurieu Peninsula, between the Gulf of St. Vincent and the Lofty Ranges. It has a very linear plan.



It took on behalf of Queen Adelaide, consort of King William IV of the United Kingdom, and was founded in 1836. Colonel William Light, one of the "banners" of its formation, disguised its city and strategic location, Near the River Torrens. Adelaida with a light design with large spaces, large squares and parks, beautiful buildings, etc. There, Adelaide became convinced of the freedom of liberty, with the freedom to choose religion, political progress and civil liberties, to lead the great world reforms.

While it remained a British province, Adelaide attracted immigrants from numerous English-speaking countries, including Germans and Europeans who escaped religious persecution. The first German Lutherans will come with me in 1838 following the glass cuts they use to find the acclaimed wineries in the Barossa Valley. After the Second World War, Italians, Greeks, Dutch, Poles and many other European nationalities brought Adelaide to start a new life. The influx of Asian immigrants as a result of the Vietnam War and, more recently, the legion of many African refugees, has made possible a significant multicultural mix. These new nuances have been mixed with the dominant Anglo-Saxon culture to form a rich and varied gastronomy.
