Australia's Nation: From Kangaroo to Dragon

When a 21st-century financial history apprentice awakens in an accident, he finds himself a member of the heart of the British Empire in 1890—Prince Arthur, grandson of Queen Victoria. He possesses knowledge from the future, yet is seen as a maverick by the ancient aristocratic system. A meticulously planned "gilding" and "exile" transports him to the far reaches of the world—Australia. This is a forgotten corner of the empire, a wild continent brimming with potential, comprised of six independent colonies. Faced with a fragmented colony, a backward industrial base, and the looming shadow of world war, Arthur knows this is the perfect stage for him to change his destiny and alter history. He mines for gold, unifies the railways, and establishes a federation, tightly binding the continent together. He "invites" the impoverished genius Tesla from America to power the entire nation with alternating current; he defies opposition to build a Pacific Fleet surpassing the "Dreadnought"; he plans ahead to avoid the Great Depression, making Australia a safe haven for global capital. When the flames of two world wars shattered the old world order, Arthur and the Australian Empire he built were no longer vassals of an empire, but rather players on the chessboard of global dominance. This is a legend of building a colony into the world's leading power from scratch, using advanced knowledge to propel the wheels of history. A new era belonging to Arthur and to Australia is about to begin.
