Adelaide History
The city was one of the planned capital cities from the time it was founded. While most of the cities in other states were established as convict settlements, Adelaide, along with some of the other cities in South Australia, was established as a free settlement area. The city was said to have been designed and structured by Colonel William Light, who strategically marked Adelaide's territories and included River Torrens, which was inhabited by Indigenous Australians, particularly the Kaurna tribe, in the past. It was in 1836 that the city was officially christened as a British province.
