Hobart is the capital city of Australia’s southern island state of Tasmania.  The city was founded in 1808 as a penal colony, and is the second oldest capital city in Australia after Sydney.  The city is the administrative and financial heart of Tasmania, and serves as the home port for both Australian and French Antarctic Operations.  Tasmania is the 26th largest island in the world, and is known for its large and relatively unspoiled natural environment, with almost 37% of the state being reserves, national parks and World Heritage Sites.
