Before it became its own country, Australia was the furthest part of the British empire. The British ruled over the far off land in much the same way they ruled over their other lands, with government and laws meant to benefit the crown.

Britain did not oppress Australia, and force it to remain a colony.

The fact is that Australia had enough wealth and significance on the world stage by the beginning of the 20th century to make a successful bid for self-government.
