I'm not trying to belittle Australia when I say this, because they did contribute an amazing amount considering their size, but I highly doubt Australia was essential or significant to the axis or allies war plans or the eventual outcome of the war.

You have made the dumbest observation in the history of the ww2f forum, where do you think the military headquarters was located for the entire South East Asia-Pacific theatre, it was right here in Australia, many of the largest military dumps in vehicles, supplies and ammunition was located here.
Many of the heavy bomber squadrons were initially operated out of Australia, Australia and New Zealand were the first ports of call for the trans-pacific convoys coming from America. And one last call if Australia and New Zealand did fall where in the hell would the Americans begin their island hopping campaigns
