District Council of Robe : ウィキペディア英語版 | District Council of Robe
The District Council of Robe is a local government area located in the Limestone Coast area of South Australia. The main offices are in Robe, the town after which the council is named. The district relies on a mix of agriculture, fisheries and tourism as major components of its economy. ==History== The district's coastline, like much of South Australia, was explored by Captains Matthew Flinders and Nicolas Baudin in 1802, with Baudin initially naming it after Admiral de Guichen. The first major town was officially founded and named 'Robe' by the South Australian Government in 1846 after Major Frederick Holt Robe, Governor of South Australia who had selected the site in 1846. It was the first major town to be established in the south east of the colony. Greytown on Rivoli Bay had been surveyed a few months earlier and was the site of a small settlement but Robe was the first administrative center and was the focus of public and commercial life in the area. The 'District Council of Robe' was proclaimed on 28 October 1869 to service the growing community at that time. By the 1880s, the district began a slow decline, and increasingly relied on its fishing and agricultural industries as its status as a major port and industrial hub decreased.〔
