Australia

Template:UnderConTemplate:CountryInfoAustralia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is a country in Oceania, between the Indian and the Southern Pacific Oceans, occupying the mainland of the continent of Australia and several islands. He has a hat, and hates emus. He is sometimes upside down because of the meme “everything in Australia is upside down”.

Because Australia is surrounded by sea, he has no neighbors. However, he is located relatively close to the south of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea and northwest of New Zealand.

The Commonwealth of Australia is often seen as a very dangerous country, due to the fact that many of the wildlife is either 🕷️ poisonous or out of control. Memes have also escalated this view further. However, if you look beside the wildlife, Australia is actually a very peaceful and happy countryball.

Australia gets along with almost everybody, has very popular tourist destinations, and just like USA, and people from countries like China, Iraq, and India come and live in his clay for a better life. He is a very safe and friendly country and a great place to escape to in the outbreak of WW3.

History

Template:UnderConOn 1 January 1901, Australia gained independence from British Empire. But he still kept the Union Jack on his flag. Most of Australia's conflicts have been because of colonial alliances, such as WW1, WW2, Korean War , Vietnam War , and the two Gulf Wars. But the most hilarious conflict Australia has ever been into was the “ Emu War ” (alone), where Aussies was mad about emus constantly destroying their crops. So they got some funds from the government and the military and decided to go to war with the emus, killing tons of them, but ultimately gave up because there was just too many emus.

At the declaration of war in 1914, a young independent Australia (along with his siblings) was pulled into their parent's war. He and New Zealand were sent to fight the Turks in Gallipoli. What was meant to be an easy victory turned into a bloodbath. The two young countryballs fought in unbearable conditions against a dug-in enemy. They were evacuated in late November 1915. The Gallipoli landings shaped Australia’s national identity, and Australia became a battle-hardened soldier and left many dead siblings behind on the beach.

In 1942, Australia adopted the Statute of Westminster, making the Commonwealth of Australia formally and fully independent from the British Empire. But, the monarch of the United Kingdom is still the monarch of Australia (and 15 other realms) today. On 3 March 1986, the Australia Act 1986 came into effect. Now, United Kingdom’s government can no longer be involved with Australia's government.

In 2010, Australia was into female leadership of Julia Gillard. In 2017, Australia legalized same-sex marriage, making the micronation of Gay and Lesbian Kingdom obsolete.
