The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The conflict was fought largely as a guerrilla war by both sides, some 600 to 900 Aboriginal Australians and more than 200 British colonists died.
- When a British penal settlement was established in Tasmania in 1803, the Aboriginal population was 3,000 to 7,000 people.
- Until the 1820s, the British and Aboriginal people coexisted with only sporadic violence, often caused by competition for game and abductions of Aboriginal women and children by settlers.
