During this period the political power was influenced by the Crown and British powerful companies (e.g. railways, meat packers, shippers, wool importers, etc.)

Just think, if we'd pushed just that little bit further, in 1982, we could have taken Argentina for another colony, to supply The Falklands, while the country was in turmoil :-)
