S1E1 They have come to stay

Title: A New Beginning Plot: On January 26, 1788, the first Australians encounter the British Empire, one of history’s greatest powers, in Sydney. Despite their stark contrasts, initial fear gives way to intrigue as connections blossom, notably between Governor Arthur Phillip and Aboriginal leader Bennelong. However, as they prepare to journey to London three years later, tensions have escalated, and the bond has frayed. Conflict intensifies as more settlers push into the territory, leading to tragic confrontations and deepening divides between the two cultures.
