Located on the southern coast of Australia, Melbourne wasn’t founded until almost 50 years after Sydney, but it quickly became the wealthiest place in the world during the Gold Rush, from the 1850s to 1880s. It’s a very multicultural city, with the 10th-largest immigrant population globally. The city also ranks at number 27 on the Global Financial Centers Index and is home to the
Australian Rules football code, the
Australian Grand Prix and the
Australian Open. It was the filming location for the first Mad Max film alongside
Chopper and
Animal Kingdom. Politically, Melbourne is more left-wing than any other city in the country and is home to the union movement.
