This state has 5 of Australia's 11 natural garden areas. These include the National Parks Scenic Rim, Frase Island, Riversleigh Fossil Fields, Wet Tropics and one of the 7 Wonders of the World - the Great Barrier Reef. As the country with the lowest tax in Australia, with new technologies and services and enough room for development, Queensland is certainly a desirable destination for many new businesses every year.

Queensland was inhabited by Aborigines as early as 65,000 years ago. The first Europeans to visit these areas were the Dutch explorers Willem Jenz and Jan Carstens. The first conqueror of Queensland was James Cook, who came to this territory back in 1970. After that, it became a part of New South Wales and a colony of Great Britain at the same time.
