So just a few nitpicks; does the navy/marines thing really need to be a US copypaste? Australia does have units you can steal names from (Z-Special Force instead of SBS, SASR for army special forces, etc) otherwise military looks perfect
Any references to France or French wouldn’t be relevant as they’re Anglois, like you. As Hypron said, way less of a Irish-Scottish influence/immigration for obvious reasons.
There would be no grand chief of the aboriginals; they are not a unified nation, but over 200 different tribes pre-settlement. You’d more likely have a council of elders that send a representative, but they wouldn’t be considered a grand chief. Similar thing for the Māori, but unsure on the makeup of their social structures
Otherwise looks pretty good to me
The idea is that the “grand chief” is elected or chosen by a council of elders as the representative of the Aboriginal people. The Māori actually have a “king” irl due to the Māori King Movement. The marines are also more closely based on the, irl, UK Royal Marines. As for the French thing, my understanding is that “France” or at least ethnic French were still a thing just inside the Anglois kingdom similar to irl Wales or Scotland. My idea is that New Caledonia is just a place that a large amount of these ethnic French settled and where a radical French group formed.
Also, I was under the impression that SASR was the only active IRL tier one special forces units in irl Australia?
