Capital of Victoria, Australia. 2nd largest city in Australia. From Federation to 1927 it was the nation's capital, until the purpose built capital city of Canberra was sufficiently constructed. Most of Melbourne is part of the Barony of Stormhold. The northern suburbs are the proposed Canton of Dubh Thrain. The south-eastern suburbs are the Canton of Krae Glas, and the Bass Coast area is the proposed Canton of Bryn a Mor. The Barony also includes the College of St Monica at Monash University (Clayton), and the College of St Bartholomew at Melbourne University (Parkville). The eastern suburbs of Melbourne are part of the Shire of Arrowreach (which is independent of Stormhold).
