Queensland, Australia

I don’t know that it’s the full story but I believe part of the reason for Queensland differing from the rest of the nation is the higher population outside of the capital city.
NSW & Victoria have remote agricultural & arid regions but until the covid shift they could be effectively ignored by politicians without jeopardising their chances of winning.
In Queensland, for years it was possible to pay little attention to the views of those in Brisbane & still win - as Bjelke-Petersen proved.
