Aboriginal Resistance

1788 saw the First Fleet of the British land on the shores of Australia. In this timeline, the Aboriginies are far more organized and manage to hold off the British. This development sees more and more powerful armies dispatched to Australia in an attempt to claim the island.

The Aboriginies were mainly armed with more traditional weaponry, although over time they began to accumulate and even develop captured weapons from the British.

It is the superior number of Aboriginal warriors combined with their knowledge of the land and resources that allows them to contend with the technologically superior British. However, as time progresses and the world becomes a much more open place there are several further developments such as intervention from other countries.
