Victoria is today (1/7) celebrating the 165th anniversary of its own "Brexit" - the day it won independence from the British colony of New South Wales. To mark the occasion, a new exhibition of rare historical artwork and records has gone on display, to mark the official birth of the enduring Melbourne-Sydney rivalry.
