Commonwealth of Australia

The Commonwealth of Australia, also known as The Australian Commonwealth or just Australia, is a nation inhabiting the majority of Oceania, but was previously solely on the continent of Australia. Due to being the major country least affected by the Spellplague, it retained most of its military forces. During the Spellplague, Australia's governing body would become an oligarchy, and they would begin to develop powerful nuclear weapons with their vast supply of uranium, eventually annexing most of the major countries within Oceania, including New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. They are now considered one of the New-World Superpowers. 
== Geography ==
Due to covering most of the Southern Hemisphere, Australia's geographical landscape varies drastically. 
Australia: On the main continent, two thirds of the country is a vast desert landscape with few humans inhabiting it (this is widely known as the 'Outback' by those inhabiting the Australian continent). Its major cities are coastal, due to the coasts being the only inhabitable areas. It has surprisingly dense forests and a 
New Zealand: New Zealand is covered by vast rolling hills, green pastures and snow-capped mountains. It had a notable sheep trade before the Spellplague.
Indonesia: Once famed for its tropical beaches and exotic wildlife, much of Indonesia is now covered in ashen ruins, as the Spellplague cause many of its dormant and active volcanoes to erupt violently within a short timespan. However, most of the major cities still function relatively normally, especially with funding from Australia.
Papua New Guinea: Covered in dense rain forests, beaches, hiking trails and quaint tribal villages, Papua new Guinea was once a popular tourist spot for Australians, but is now the site of its largest naval bastion.
== Political Structure ==
Australia is run by an oligarchy, meaning the power of the government is in the hands of a small group of people, specifically the Lee family. The patriarch and figurehead of the Lee family, High Chairman Gerald Lee, is responsible for Australia's militaristic approach. 
The Oligarchy treats those who follow it fairly, however those who publicly speak against the Oligarchy are often times punished or executed.

== Military Power ==
The Australian Commonwealth Forces (ACF) consists of the combined armies of Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and Indonesia, comprising a force of over 600,000 active combatants and over 800,000 reserve units, totaling up to 1.4 million personnel. Along with this, it is one of the most technologically sophisticated armies, possessing fully functioning warships, frigates, carriers etc. based off of Alliance designs and technology, as well as heavy battle tanks and jet fighters. 
Their ground troops are highly trained and can adapt to a multitude of environments, whether it be arid desert, icy tundra, dense forest or urban cityscapes. 
=== The Blue Armada ===
Australia's air-based naval forces are referred to as the "Blue Armada". Much like other naval forces, it is tasked with defending Australia and its territories from foreign invaders as well as invading other countries. Though smaller in capacity than the fleets of Russia and the EKD's, at a total of around 283 vessels, they are just as developed technology wise. Interestingly, Australia also possesses the most Super Dreadnought-class ships out of all the existing nations. The defining property of Australia's ships is that they are all, in fact, powered by a nuclear reactor core, making them far more sustainable that traditional fuel-based cruisers, though the need for maintenance is higher because of this. Listed below are Australia's major vessels. 
==== Capital-class Ships ====
* Blue Oceania: The crown jewel of the Blue Armada, the Blue Oceania is a large Supercarrier/Capital-class ship armed with countless 30mm self-defense cannons, 120mm light flak cannons and 800mm heavy cannons. Additionally, instead of the usual front axial laser stationed on the bow of most capital-class ships, Blue Oceania instead has an on-board 35 megaton nuclear warhead designed to wipe out entire fleets of ships.
