Australian Flag

To form the Australian nation the player must complete the decision named, "Federate Australia" in the decision tab. It requires the player to:

Control 7 or more states with the list being above,
Researched Nationalism,

When the player does form the Australian nation, New South Wales should be named Australia and have a new flag, but due to the formation event not working as intended, this won't happen but the effects still apply.

Decisions

There is only 1 custom decision for the Australian colonies and it is:

Federate Australia

This decision requires the player to have the following:

Be a peace,
Researched Nationalism,
Relations between Great Britain being over or at 50,
Does not have "Australian Unifier",
At least have amicable relations and has a greater GDP than a neighbouring country with the same overlord.

This would result in the player gaining two colonies and also the "Australian Unifier" which stops you from doing the decision again for another 2 years.

Releasable Countries

At this time there is only one releasable country and it is New Zealand, it will be released as:
