Royal Geographical Society of Australasia
On 22 June 1883, the Geographical Society of Australasia started at a meeting in Sydney. Branches were formed in Victoria〔http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/32036214?q=royal+geographical+society+victoria&c=collection〕 and Queensland〔http://www.rgsq.org.au/〕 in the same year. In July 1885, the South Australian branch started.〔http://www.rgssa.org.au/〕
In July 1886 the society became the Royal Geographical Society of Australasia. The New South Wales branch's new constitution in 1886 widened its scope to encourage interest in scientific, commercial, educational and historical aspects of geography.〔http://trove.nla.gov.au/people/471399?q=royal+geographical+society+new+south+wales&c=people 〕 The Society sponsored several important expeditions, notably the New Guinea Exploration Expedition in 1885.〔http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/21441320? and http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/31710256?〕
The Victorian branch amalgamated with the Victorian Historical Society, while the New South Wales branch ceased to function by the early 1920s.〔http://acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemDetailPaged.aspx?itemID=422826〕 The South Australian branch continues as the Royal Geographical Society of South Australia,〔 as does the Royal Geographical Society of Queensland.〔
