HISTORY OF THE
NORTHERN TERRITORY
Population approx 200,000

The Northern Territory was administered by the State of South Australia until it was placed under federal government control in 1911.
Darwin, the capital, is a modern city whose links with Indonesia and Papua New Guinea echo trade and migration patterns that pre-date European expansion into the Asia Pacific by many thousands of years.

NORTHERN TERRITORY OF AUSTRALIA
The TOP End

On 12 July 1961, Sturt's Desert Rose was proclaimed floral emblem of the Northern Territory by the Commonwealth Government which was then responsible for the administration of the Territory. Proclamation was made using the name Cienfugosia gossypioides which is now replaced by the name Gossypium sturtianum var. sturtianum. In an Executive Statement in June 1975, the Majority Leader in the Legislative Assembly of the Northern Territory confirmed this species as the floral emblem. Since the granting of self-government to the Northern Territory in 1978, Sturt's Desert Rose has been incorporated into various insignia and so become symbolic of the region.
Sturt's Desert Rose has also been known as Darling River Rose, Cotton Rosebush and Australian Cotton. Although less widely used, the vernacular name, Australian Cotton, is appropriate as this species belongs to the genus Gossypium, which includes commercial cotton. However the hairs covering the seeds are much shorter than the lint of commercial cotton varieties.

 

Alice Springs is the main town of central Australia. Southwest of 'the Alice' is the famous landmark of the red heart: Uluru, or Ayers Rock, a sandstone monolith of living significance to Australia's Indigenous people.
Aborigines form a larger proportion of the population in the Northern Territory than elsewhere.
