Bathurst War
Wiradjuri resistance to European settlement in Australia
The Bathurst War (1824) was a war in present-day New South Wales, Australia, between the Wiradjuri tribes and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The successful Blaxland, Lawson, and Wentworth expedition of 1813 to find a route through the "impenetrable" Blue Mountains allowed the colony to expand onto the vast fertile plains of the west.
