A random thought that came to me this morning.
Your challenge is to create a TL where:
1. Australia is not colonized by the British, but by another European power.
2. *Australia grows populous and prosperous through bigger immigration than OTL.
3. *Australia wins its independence (not necesserally by force) before 1900 and dominates a large chunk of the Pacific, but maintains good relations with Britain and the USA.
4. *Australia wins a war against Japan in the 1940s as part of a greater conflict that engulfs the world and occupies it (it can be jointly with another power) until at least the 60s after the war.
