Captain cook found out how to cure scurvy. Scurvy is a sickness that you get if you don't eat fruits and vegetables because you don't have enough vitamin C. This is what happens, your skin gets a lot of little bruises and rashes then you get a huge rash and then it turns to a huge bruise. Scurvy sometimes hurts you gums and then you won't want to eat because it hurts a lot. the way to cure it is eat fruits or vegetables. Captain cook fed his crew some fruit and that's why none of them got the sickness. Everyone thought that Australia was tiny until captain cook mapped it. Captain cook has a lot of statues because he was really famous. Captain cook was born in England. Captain cook had seven children and that is a lot of children. Captain cook saw some of the seven years war.
Australia's population was about one thousand before captain cook mapped it but later when he mapped the population became about two point million. Captain cook was killed for a religious reason. Captain cook went around the Pacific Ocean. Captain cook traveled really far because he went to Hawaii, New Zealand and Australia. Captain Cook made a little bit of mistakes. Captain cook was an amazing sailor. He was lucky that he was the captain of the ship because if the captain was one of his crew members they might fail and they might get killed earlier. Captain cook was named after his father because some parents like naming their children their name. Captain Cook also made one of his children his named after him weird right. Captain cook joined the merchant navy when he was a teenager and then he joined the royal navy when he was twenty seven that means he was a adult when he joined the royal navy.
Sailors and pirates almost always got scurvy in the old days. Not only people get scurvy but animals also get it. Almost nobody gets scurvy any more. When you have scurvy, sometimes your teeth comes out because it can infect your gums too and that makes you not want to eat because you have no teeth and your gums hurts a lot so you won't want to have scurvy.
