21. The decision to establish a Penal Colony at Botany Bay was based on more factors than just the need to dispose
of convicts. Besides the suitable conditions of the area that promised to make the convicts self-sufficient within
a year, several other aspects of New South Wales, made it appealing to the government. Botany Bay offered an
abundance of flax, hemp and timber, which were needed by the Navy at the time. In addition, the government,
was not ignorant of the economic and military advantages of this position. Its great distance from Britain meant
it was a strategic location and the fact that the convicts would have no means of escape from the island
continent, added merit to the location. These considerations, however, were not unique to Botany Bay.
