A large island nation in the southern hemisphere which is pioneering universal surveillance of its citizenry.

Australia is a country. It is the largest country by area in Oceania and the world's sixth-largest country. Australia's population of nearly nearly 26 million (2021) in an area of 7,617,930 square kilometres (2,941,300 sq mi), is highly urbanised and heavily concentrated on the eastern seaboard.

The Federation of Australia constitutionally consists of six federated states (New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria, and Western Australia) and ten federal territories. Canberra is the nation's capital, while the largest city is Sydney, and other major metropolitan areas include Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide. Australia is a regional power, and has the world's thirteenth-highest military expenditure.

It has been particularly aggressive in universal surveillance of its citizenry. By Autumn 2020, its COVID-19 response inspired the comment that it "looks like the most totalitarian police state that has existed in recent history", and that "it has become a full-scale pilot test for the elitists to see how well they can implement the New World Order."

History

Full article: Australia/Genocide

The first colony Sydney was founded by Britain in 1788 as a politician prison camp, and the settlement gradually spread over the whole continent. At first regarded a place to dump political prisoners and unruly elements, including Irish independence fighters and democracy activists, the agricultural potential of the colony soon made it attractive for free settlers. The future Australian deep state was formed around the leading richest men and the military administration, heavily centered on Britain.

The settlement involved a genocide of the native population, sometimes by the government, sometimes on private initiative by settlers.

Australia received its own constitution in 1901. but remained tightly connected to Britain. It participated in World War 1 and World War 2, after which the allegiance shifted more and more to the United States.
