The correct option is A Australia
In the riots that took place in 1830's, 450 were sent to Australia as convicts. During the late 1820's and 1830's, the Swing Rioters smashed the threshing machines and threatened farmers who had them. The rioters were dealt with very harshly. Nine were hung and 450 were transported to Australia.
