A 13-part series
11: Into the Pacific
During the First World War,
Australia was bitterly divided by the conscription issue: Empire loyalists versus
Republicans of Irish extraction. In the Second World War,
Britain was unable to defend Australia from Japanese expansion and instead,
Australians had to look to America for help.
