Would anybody like to design a TL where the Japanese succeed in invading and holding Australia during and after 1942 ? WI the IJA instead of OTL rejecting IJN plans to invade as being unfeasible given Atrmy commitments in China, Manchuria, and on the Russian border, actually did somehow commit to an invasion of Australia ? How would a post-WWII Japanese-occupied Australia look ? And what about Gen MacArthur, the Australian govt and the Brisbane Line of defence (whereby in the event of invasion all Australian territory north of Brisbane would be abandoned to the Japanese and subject to a scorched-earth policy, with Australian and American forces pulling back around Brisbane to better defend the southeastern seaboard with its predominance of Australia's population and industry)- how would this policy have worked ?
