How were the British colonies of Canada Australia and New Zealand settled and how did they win self-rule?
The British colonies of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand were settled primarily through waves of migration, often involving convicts and free settlers seeking new opportunities. In Canada, settlement began with French and later British colonization, leading to a gradual push for self-governance through the confederation in 1867. Australia was established as a penal colony, and it gained self-rule through a series of referendums and the passage of the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act in 1901. New Zealand, initially settled by Māori and later by British immigrants, achieved self-governance with the establishment of the Parliament in 1854 and further autonomy with the Statute of Westminster in 1947.
