Hello newbies and players! welcome to the next article by the DoE.

Note: I thank the kind people who made the History of Australia wiki page.

The beginning of time

eAustralia was minor nation, it only had a few citizens at this time. The first presidential election was won by Zaney, eAustralia's William Wallace or Robert the Bruce. Zaney was the man who lead the independence resistance.

Zaney served only one term as president. Efforts to increase activity and population were insubstantial and had little effect. eAustralia had only about 60+ citizens at that time. During Neo26988's third term as President was the real first conflict with major rival eIndonesia has started. With Neo insulting the eIndonesian President through letter. When the war module was brought in eIndonesia declared war on eAustralia. And eAustralia's long struggle for independence began.

Indonesia-Australian War

eIndonesia the super power in Asia began to expand it's borders. Since eIndonesia had almost 2000 citizens there lust for domination began, making them one of Erepubliks first empires. eAustralia was always going to to lose to eIndonesia, eAustralia simply didn't have the firepower to compete.

The war began on April 14, 2008 with congress declaring war on Australia. Zaney took control from there, sending the country's accounts of gold and AUD to the newly created National Bank of Australia. The capture of each region was quick and easy for eIndonesia because of the population difference. The United Kingdom, a member of then alliance ATLANTIS, joined the war to fight against Indonesia and so did the USA.



Tasmania the final region of eAustralia finally fell to the eIndonesians. Starting the chapter of eAustralia in exile.

Post-War and the Government in Exile

Following the war with eIndonesia, fled to mostly the eUK and eIreland. Zaney and other set up a government of exile over in the eUK to get eAustralia back.The Goverment in exile decided to make an elite group called the DropBears, controlled by MachineMadness to train and to finally fight the eIndonesians in war. The government also departments for the eAustralians in exile.The admins allowed resistance Wars and eAustralia planned for war. After planning war began

Movement for Independence

The resistance war was a failure and eAustralia was sent back to eUK with out any regions. Though, negotiations with eIndonesia started again. With raw materials coming into the game eAustralia's regions became more valuble to eIndonesia. Which made negotiations with eIndonesian became harder due to the high resources in WA and NT. Following long discussions with eIndonesia, they signed an agreement with eAustralia, making a eAustralia a independent state by giving back Victoria and the capital which is NSW.

A new beginning(Political)

Now that Australia had Independence, eAustralians rushed to become a part of the revolution. Cottus Arci, a former eAustralian who moved to Canada after the invasion, created the Australian Democratic Socialist Party. Calibur, created the Australian National Party. The two parties gained active support instantaneously, each striving for control over the Senate in Australia's first election. The ANP gained the majority, while the ADSP and gained seven, respectively, out of 20 total.

Cottus Arci as president also oversaw the inception of Australia's third region, Northern Territory, which was again diplomatically sought from Indonesia per the guidelines of their agreement. This region also produced high quantities of diamonds.

Politics and Expansion

The ADSP overtook the ANP as the major party in eAustralia with the ADSP taking majority in senate and regularly winning the CP elections. During this period saw the introduction of parties such as the AI and the TBP.
Politics was prospering in eAustralia and was turning out great leaders like Derek Apollyon, Ranger Bob, scotywest, Tim09, corny-ratbag and Aussie Vegeta. After many months of negotiation, eAustralia had regained all it's regions besides Western Australia, the richest resource region in the world. Ranger Bob also signed a treaty with Sol and started to participate in war games during this time.

Operation Two-Fold Bay

After negotiations with eIndonesia hit a snag, eAustralia had enough. They began working on a resistance war and with help from Eden (Post- ATLANTIS) things was coming together. eAustralia attacked Western Australia and surprisingly won. eAustralia successfully negotiated a Non aggression pact with eIndonesia. Giving eAustralia full Independence for the first time since it's beginning.

Brazilian Invasion

eBrazil, a strong ally of eIndonesia attacked eAustralia, gaining WA and NT in the process. But unable to gain anymore regions. eAustralia eventually gained WA and NT back. The war went surprisingly well for eAustralia, gaining both regions and reportly on there way to eBrazil. eBrazil had to Resistence war eSouth Africa to stop the advances of eAustralia.

Alliances and the Great Southern War

Eden and Phoenix had became the two major alliances in the eWorld and Eden had began major offensive in Asia and Europe. eAustralia decided to become a member of Eden much to the distaste of eBrazil and eIndonesia. After eAustralia drove back eBrazil from the eBrazil invasion. President Cerb decided to call for a declaration of war against eArgentina. Every single senator at that time voted yes on the proposal that ultimately started the Great Southern War. eSouth Africa was PTOed by the Channers, who gave land to eBrazil and eArgentina. eAustralia decided to help eSouth Africa and declared war against the south American giants.

During this time eIndonesia saw this as a good time to attack eAustralia as they where open for attack. eIndonesia took NT and WA again. So eAustralia asked for Brolliance (US, Canada, Ireland and Japan) and Eden.
They eventually were able to regain the regions. eSouth Africa at the end of The Great Southern War became liberated and won there freedom.

Angel and Demon

An eIndonesian PTO group Angel and Demon or AnD for short infiltrated eAustralia and began to grow. AnD are notorious for there use of multies. Began to take eAustralia by surprise by winning the PP elections, winning a few smaller parties and eventually taking major parties PaPP and AI. After months of constant PTO attempts, AnD eventually PTOed the senate. Widdows9000 declared war on eIndonesia before eAustralia lost out and raged quit as President, leaving Sir_c0nstant as President in Exile. Sir_c0nstant term was all about ATO and trying to save eAus. But eAustralia could not be saved. Falling to the eIndonesian oppressors. Sir_c0nstant was elected again as President in Exile due to the ANP/AMP pact. After his term eCommunist and ACP PP Dean Kong was elected as the next President in exile. He used his term to begin planning of a new military structure and being able to establish a controllable country in exile. The next Presidential elections was pro Eden candidate Hinokai and pro Phoenix candidate Bass Junkie. Hinokai was elected as the ATO choice. And won a historic Presidential election. Beating AnD candidate Hyaken after multi votes where removed from the elections by the admins. Next up is the PP elections. Hopefully eAustralia wins.
