Are you sure you have it right?

Although european's wandered in and around the coast in the 17th century there are no recordings of anything being introduced at that time that I can find. Perhaps you mean 1770 when cookey arrived? In which case it could have been anything from Europeans to Scurvey or smallpox. Sheep and other such things mentioned above came much later (Merino shep in 1797).

It is unlikely that the 1707 Act of Union would impact on OZ as it didn't come into british colonial territory until early 19th C.

If this is a quiz, does it have a theme?

It was the Union Flag (only called a 'Union Jack' if it is flown from a jackstaff on a ship). The Scottish Parliament was dissolved in 1707 and Scotland and England joined to become the United Kingdom. The present national flag was adopted by superimposing the old flag of England on top of the blue and white flag of Scotland.

I forgot to mention.
I know Australia was officially discovered in 1770 by Captain Cook at Botany Bay and claimed in 1788 etc. However, Australia had been visited by Europeans since the 17tth century and I think the Union Flag made its appearance there in 1707.
