As we know, the Dutch where the first europeans that we know of that arrived on the Australian continent. What if they decided to colonise australia, or at least western australia (not the state, just the western area).
Along the coast, its actually quiet green and lush up to a certain point. I calculated and at least 300,000 sq km is green, could the dutch have settled there and set up a colony?
Where would their main city/base be. How do you think a Dutch colony in western australia would have grown, would they have grown past the western edge or just keep to that area
what would their interactions with the britsh have been like if the dutch didn't get there already (probably not).
How would the dutch treat the indigenous population as opposed to the british in otl.
