Australia's relationship with other "western nations" is undergoing a significant change at the moment. Even though the government appears to be strengthening its ties with the U.S. at the cost of its relationship with the U.K. this is not really the case. The influence that Britain has over Australia is almost negligable, Australian populace and government really pay no heed to English politics but many conservative people still feel traditional ties with England but this does not affect Australian policy. Australia's military links with the U.S. have come under increasing scrutiny from much of the populace of Australia and many Australian feel that we may follow U.S. policy just a little too easily, however many others argue that the relationship with the U.S. is our best defence policy as Australia is only a nation of 21 million it would be difficult to defend ourselves with out assistance. Perhaps the most significant factor over the last few years and which will continue to exert greater influence into the future is the changing nature of the Australian demographic. Australia now accepts many more immigrants from nations that have no cultural ties to England or the U.S. as their influence grows expect to see a far more multicultural and multinational approach from Australia, especially if our economic links with south east Asia continue to expand at the rate they are.
During the beginning of WW2 Australia and Britain enjoyed a close alliance. However, when Singapore fell and the subsequent Battle for Australia began Australia decided to look for the USA for a closer relationship which eventually eclipsed the relationship with Britain. Today Britain means relatively nothing to Australia nor her defence policy.

Australia looked upon Britain as the 'Mother Country' and thought itself as a smaller version of Britain. they taught British history at schools and adopted Britain's legal system as well as Britain's political system. many Australians also considered Britain as their home and talked fondly of returning there, even though some of them had never actually been to Britain. we also considered Britain to be our protectorate and because we were a new and isolated country, they would come and protect us if we so needed it.
1782. Britain did not separate from US it was the US that separated from Britain.
The US would "bail" Britain out, by the use of the "Lend Lease Act" (Arsenal of Democracy...giving Britain Rifles, Pistols, Machineguns, Tanks, Warships, Food, Medical Supplies, Airplanes, Fuel, Clothing, Ammunition, Artillery Shells, Bombs, Lumber, etc...). In return, the US received base rights, and Britain's acceptance of the US Policy of no further colonialism...at the expense of the US taxpayers.

Hamilton saw Britain as America's largest trading partner with a similar culture and history. He basically foresaw the US-UK relationship that would be prominent in the late 1800s to the Presen.
