Timeline

After reading about the different ways the three different countries were founded, there is an obvious similarity. All three countries were founded by the same kingdom of Britain. "In the past, Britain was a very powerful nation and there is no doubt why they had time and resources to explore all these different parts of the world"
(Wikipedia). But, Britain was far from being a friendly figure to these three countries. At first, all three colonies disagreed very much with Britain and wanted nothing to do with them. All three different native tribes "Fought hard to keep their independence from the intruding country of Britain"(Edhelper.com). The British were very forceful and wanted the natives to change their ways to how they believed the world should run. The USA, like New Zealand and Australia at one point was tired of the British and the natives " Fought back with no avail"(Americanhistory.com)and were kept in Britain's control for many years. But, all three countries after a matter of time found a way to dig themselves out of this hole the Brits had put them in. The USA finally "gained there independence in 1776 from the British"(squidoo.com) New Zealand and Australia also later followed through and gained their independence as well from Britain. Although it may have taken these three countries quite a while to gain their independence, they did gain some advantages from being colonies. The British taught them very well how to run a government and how to keep the country running smoothly. They may not have been very happy of being controlled, but not everything about it had a negative effect.
