The most accurate option is that the native peoples of Tasmania were exterminated. This process is known as the Black War, which was a period of violent conflict between European settlers and the Indigenous population from 1824 to 1832. The Indigenous population was subjected to violent attacks, mass killings, and forced removal from their lands. By the 1870s, the Tasmanian Indigenous population was close to extinction, with only a handful surviving.
