Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The Europeans originally the British moved to Australia and New Zealand to initially use the region as a penal colony by sending prisoners to cultivate agriculture there. Then after the elapsed times of the prisoners, many of them chose to stay over to start a new life. This was how the British colonization of both the Australia and New Zealand regions began.
