say Western Australia leaves the Australian Federation and becomes its own sovereign nation.... relations between it and the rest of Australia good at first..... then China tries to bring WA in its sphere of influence and bribes the Western Ozzies with money, a different type of new government structure and other goods .... then China starts bringing WA in its military sphere of influence as well and has plans to formally ally with it and build missile bases on its territory.... meanwhile the Western Australians going along with it with a pro-China leader..... what do you want the rest of Australia to do? sit idly by?? then Australia and WA start warring and everyone blames Australia where the real devil here was China and WA's ignorance and stupidity! now substitute Australia with Russia, WA with Ukraine and China with NATO....
