Future micro-territories in Australia's seventh state

If all develops according to plan the colonial conception of the Australian landmass as as a singular nation will become eroded. The reclaimed Koorie nation will emerge as a territorial archipelago in an ocean of British colonial landscapes. A demand for new passports and visas will require all inhabitants to carry verification, explicating their right to migrate throughout the continent. The conception of the nation as one, whole and homogenous entity will be abandoned. 

Old traditions will emerge. People will need to seek permission (a visa stamp) to move from Wurrung country to Kurnai country to visit their beach house. To fly into Kuring-gal for a business meetings a yearly pardon will need to be granted and environmental refuges will be welcomed onto Ngoongar land while miners will be treated as illegal immigrants.
