January 10,1902, Australia National Day.

Since January 10th is the founding day of the Australian Principality, it naturally became Australia’s National Day.

However, since Arthur was in Europe during the previous National Day, he had no chance to attend, and therefore there was no preparation for grand ceremonies and rituals.

This time was Australia’s 2nd anniversary of founding, and with the achievements of various construction projects in Australia, the Cabinet specially prepared a number of activities for this year’s National Day.

The first among them was the National Day parade.

It has been six months since the reform of the Australian Guards began. During the six months of training, the Australian Army has experienced significant growth and gradually become a qualified army.

In order to train this force of 6,000, Arthur mobilized most of the Guards, and even shamelessly asked Germany to send several training experts.

However, this move indeed has been quite effective, the discipline of the army has been completely renewed, and it is evident from the overall perspective that this is a strong army.

In order to make them truly elite, the Ministry of Defense has spent a lot of resources to arm them all with the latest Lee-Enfield rifles and feed them with dozens of bullets every day.

Although it cannot be guaranteed that every soldier will become a sharpshooter, at least they won’t waste all their bullets on the air when entering a real war.

If it weren’t for the upcoming National Day, the Ministry of Defense would have already started reorganizing these trained soldiers.

However, the number of Australian soldiers is still too small. Although the 6,000 soldiers can barely be reorganized into an infantry division, it only improves the backbone part.

According to the German infantry organization, a standard fully staffed infantry division has about 18,000 people, 4,600 horses, and more than 30 heavy machine guns.

The next step is to complete this infantry division by conscription and equip it with a large number of heavy firepower weapons.

Currently, Australia’s heavy weapons include the MA-96 Maxim machine guns, CA-i machine guns, and various calibers of artillery supported by Germany.

If the military industry expert can successfully learn about the French M1897 cannon, then they will have another automatic cannon.

In terms of firepower, the Australian Army, equipped with these powerful weapons, is no weaker than any other army and is comparable in firepower to the armies of the Powers.

Even so, under the adequate logistical support, the Australian Army, with CA-i machine guns and M1897 cannons, may even be able to suppress other Powers’ armies.

After the parade ceremony, there will be the second round of assistance for Australia’s poor population during the National Day.

The Royal Relief Committee announced the second round of assistance for the poor population, which is through work-for-relief, providing these poor populations with all kinds of relief materials, including grain and some relief funds.

This is the result of the Relief Committee after consulting. Compared to giving fish, teaching people how to fish is clearly a better way.

The Relief Committee will look for suitable jobs for these poor populations within the entire scope of Australia and let them get relief through some simple labor.

Doing so can also greatly reduce the misappropriation of relief materials. After all, to receive relief supplies, you need to work at some designated job for some time.

For ordinary people, this time is enough to find a more decent job and earn more money.

As the National Day approaches, the atmosphere in Australia becomes more and more festive.

In Sydney, you can see the newly confirmed Australian national flag everywhere.

This is the final design of the Australian national flag after the Australian Government has collected all the designs for the national flag from the public.

The Australian flag is also a three-color flag, composed of light blue, white, and yellow.

The white is in the middle, representing the supreme authority of the Australian royal family and Australia’s eternal monarchical system, as well as the white Australian policy.

Yellow is on the top, representing all the Australian people, and symbolizing the most important Australian concept.

Blue is at the bottom, indicating that Australia is a maritime country, and sea power is the most important thing for Australia.

This flag design is completely different from the national flag of Australia in the original historical context, but it can still show the current style of Australia.

To be honest, when Arthur first saw the design for the national flag, he suddenly thought of the hot meme and ridicule about the French national flag in later generations.

Because the French flag has a white color in the middle, with the French people’s weak performance during World War II, it is said that the French national flag is very convenient for surrendering, as it can quickly be made into the surrender flag, the white flag.

Now, there is also a white color on the Australian national flag, but it should not face such an awkward situation as France, right?

Due to the approaching National Day, many temporary flag-making workshops have opened in Australia.

A simple piece of cloth with a fixed ratio, rendered into the national flag of Australia using three colors, can then be sold.

These small national flags usually sell at a low price but are very popular among all Australians.

Even those who have recently moved to Australia as immigrants have to follow the trend, buy a national flag and hang it at their doorstep.

This, in turn, indirectly increases the income for many Australians, driving the development of the Australian economy.

This is what Arthur is happy to see, not because of the increase in the economy, but because of the degree of recognition that Australians have for this country.

No matter what their reasons, uniting all Australians under the nation of Australia has already become the greatest success of Arthur and the Australian Government he leads.

This National Day event did not invite other countries to participate, but only invited the officers of the New Zealand Colony and some groups of people.

About 200 people were invited, most of whom are influential people in New Zealand or active advocates of New Zealand’s independence.

Arthur’s invitation to them serves no other purpose but to let them see what Australia, which had the same status as New Zealand, has developed into now.

Although Arthur has been Governor of New Zealand for more than a year, he did not initiate any reform in New Zealand, and even his administrative measures have not been extensively involved.

As the New Zealand Garrison is under the control of the British Empire, Arthur does not have to worry about any control issues in New Zealand.

Under such circumstances, New Zealand fell into a semi-left state. Arthur did not suppress the independent forces in New Zealand, and New Zealand did not learn much about their Governor, Arthur.

Now, Arthur has finally freed up his hands, and it is time for the people of New Zealand to understand the changes in Australia.
