The United Republic of Australia and New Zealand (TURANZ) was formed when both former members of the British Commonwealth finally rejected the Queen as head-of-state and decided to unite. This was shortly after the ANZAC Event, when returning members of the Australian and New Zealand SAS took their heads of state hostage duing an awards ceremony, frustrated after poor support during their decade long rotation in Afghanistan.

The joining of the two countries was celebrated with the construction of an undersea railway between Melbourne and Wellington.
