“The British long ago had one of the biggest concentration camps and they called it “Ireland”.
The Brits replaced Ireland with a bigger one, called Australia.
Actually, it was America first for the British. The only reason they started to send the convicts to Australia, was because of the American Revolution and they couldn’t send them to America any longer. At the time they had their convicts on ships near places like New York and penal colonies like Georgia.
When the Americans had the revolution, they had to find a new place.The penal colony was established in Australia in 1788.
