Queensland in your Timelines?

Inspired by the Michigan in your TL's thread, who here would like to share what happens to my home state of Queensland (that in Australia for those rebel colonists and so on who don't know :mad:). As with Michigan, i feel Queensland is generaly left out of AH, so i'm jsut curious :).

Unfortunately, Australia in general is left out of most AH timelines because people feel that it isn't a particularly important country in the world...
Even though in the grand scheme of things it isn't, I mean really.
 
I would like to see it being colonized by Bugis seafarers of Celebes in a TL
But seeing my last 2 TLs, if I make one, I would abandon it beacuse of school like the other 2
 
Australia may be a bit of a backwater, but Qld is the backwater of Aus so nobody will want to know anything about it. Victoria on the other hand......


There was a comprehensive TL about Pauline/One Nation winning a Qld state election, I think it was called The Revolutionaries or somesuch.

The NT is more of a backwater than Queensland. And whats wrong with Victoriajust because you work out at Laverton :D
 
But I moved away from Laverslum because it sucked arse. I now live in G-town and check out the serenity every day as I come over the hill and get a panorama of the bay.
 
Check out Decades of Darkness by Jared if you want to see a very well developed Australia in a non-Australia focussed TL. Incidently his Queensland is called Kingsland.
 
IIRC he mentioned in LoRaG that he is Australian, or a resident here. He takes issue with the youth of today pronouncing the nation 'Straya.

Let's face it, with all the speech devolutions going on today I wouldn't be surprised if we end up reffering to it as "Striye".
 
In NSCW The japanese invaded Townsville and bombed Brisbane as part of a very stupid plan to take Australia out of the war, after the japanese had developed a very bad case of victory disease.

It got better. Or it will when I can finally get to write some updates on the Pacific.

Been thinking about dividing up that nation down there. Anyone who can help me out with expert knowledge would be greatly appreciated...
 
In my own TL, it was divided between the Portuguese and Chinese up until 1708, and henceforth the Chinese colonies transferred to British rule. It's the only part of Australia (or al-Ostralh) without a significant Islamic community.
