Although the combat effectiveness of the military cannot be entirely measured by the awe it demonstrates during a parade, the military's combat prowess can nonetheless be clearly showcased at such events—at least to a rough extent.
If Australasians felt only pride while watching their own army, witnessing the subsequent review of other countries' militaries would have allowed them to deeply appreciate the strength of the Australasia Army.
This is no self-praise; the vast difference in power was simply reflected in the differing displays of army reviews among several nations.
Not counting Australasia, there were quite a few nations participating in the review, totaling about ten.
Aside from Britain's military, which was still reasonably organized and whose equipment was not much different from Australasia's, the other nations couldn't compare with Australasia in terms of weapons and equipment, the neatness of the soldiers during review, and the solemnity and awe they conveyed.
