Africa colonization would still have occurred - land & power.
Australia colonization would still have occurred - land & power.

Probably not by the British.



Why?

The British didn't have great interest it seems in the Southern Asia
region
they were more interested in Indian/ China etc. Indonesia was controlled
by
the Dutch and the French and Germans also had interests in the region. The
Dutch had mapped some of the coast in the C17 calling the Country New
Holland. The poms showed little interest in Australia till the American
War
and lost a place for their convicts which was the reason behind the First
fleet leaving for Aus. It may be strongly suggested that the American War
of
Independence was the imputes behind the Australians white colonisation



They still had Canada, and recall that much of the area beyond the colonies
wwas held by the French.
This would limit the expansion of the colonies into the interior.

Even if they showed little interest, if another nation had started sttling
there, Britian would have established a presence.
If they didn't then they'd be...well..left out.
