French syphilis feels like it'd be somehow worse than regular syphilis... is that just me?

I had a total realisation that that is where 'kangaroo court' comes from, never even thought about it, but it makes sense now.

I'd rather be sent to Australia. Also if you get eaten by a crocodile, you are really unlucky because the colonies were centred around Sydney. Crocodiles don't live any further south than Rockhampton. You're best bet is have a trade or be a patient diplomat so that the Aborigine people don't kill you.

Nice to see that, 531 years after the Siege of Naples, Syphilis is still called "French disease."

Australia is clear, at the end of your sentence you were given money and land. While in the US you got nothing but poverty.

As long as you weren’t on the Second Fleet to Australia where like over a quarter of the prisoners died on the way there in squalid hellish conditions

As an Australian I can confirm crocs cannot be found where they put settlers in the 1700’s to far down the country

considering they lost a fair amount of the prisoners into general population in Australia (from Australia btw) it wasn't as had of an option. surviving the voyage over however is a different story.

Hi Steve & Gabby did you know Australia had a penal colony with a penal colony within, a penal colony. So when a convict served his time in Sydney penal colony, but if the convict commit a crime. He or she would have to serve their time in Brisbane colony. So if got a third chance and blow it. They would be sent to the Hobart penal colony.
