It tends not to be forgotten here. Australia had far more casualties in the first world war than the second.
France also had more casualties in WW1, and may even loom bigger in our memories.
That seems likely. Absent any specific information to the contrary I expect 'looming' to approximately track casualties/population and by that metric France was over three times worse off than Australia.
