In early February 1918, the total cost of the government war and the domestic situation were fully accounted for, and the final result was reported to Arthur's desk.
Compared to the last time the population was counted, the population of Australasia had grown to 18.678 million, now approaching the 20 million mark.
Now that the war is over, the immigration policies of various countries have gradually resumed, and there is a possibility of welcoming more immigrants in the new year, thereby breaking through the 20 million population mark.
In 1917, Australasia's gross domestic product reached 2.24 billion dollars, equivalent to 448 million pounds, 896 million Australian dollars, with a growth rate of around 7%.
From this data, it can be seen that the impact of the war on Australasia's development was minimal.
