A supporter of this event boasted that he could make it happen within 12 months, only to fail and die 5 years before this event actually occurred. A key roadblock in this event was solved by limiting the Braddon Clause to 10 years. A speech in support of this event quoted a James Brunton Stephens poem and was given at a school in Tenterfield. The Earl of Hopetoun (“HOPE-toon”) committed a “blunder” in the leadup to this event by appointing William (*) Lyne as an interim leader. This event gives its name to an architectural style that includes images of the waratah flower. Henry Parkes is considered the “father” of this 1901 event, after which Edmund Barton became the first Prime Minister of a newly-formed nation. For 10 points, name this event that united colonies such as Queensland and New South Wales. ■END■
