You're catching on ...... I only did the completed Queenslund map - the Disintegration of the over-large and cumbersome huge states from the time of colonisation - but all options are on the table...

NSW, Queensland, maybe not SA and NT and Tas Mania just yet, and WA could all be chopped up into smaller states for easier and more efficient handling, not least by disposing of their overly centralised governments in the 'capital cities' (Hunger Games style), filled with apparently effete latte drinkers with eddication etc who know everything and are sitting on fat salaries in ivory towers while dictating to the bloke struggling against the elements on a desert stock run or something or battling to find a living in what is essentially a social desert now filled with venomous snakes of all kinds, or are sitting around discussing sweeping social science concepts for the future that have no relationship with activity on the ground....

Jeez - sounds like the 'leadership' in a war, and kinda makes you wish you'd signed up for submarines for the peace and quiet, doesn't it?

The Distinguished Service Cross is hereby awarded to High Ranker Honour Baise for dedication to duty in committing the troops to direct conflict and in harm's way and in situations where instant decisions could ruin their lives upon reflection later, while ensuring that the supply of excellent coffee was always available at HQ, and that all pins were correctly moved on maps regardless of often exceptional conditions prevailing on the battlefield. Colonel Baise' courage and dedication to duty while controlling operations from a protected base demonstrate the very best in leadership qualities expected of a high ranking officer in a combat zone.
