East Timor.

East Timor had been colonized by Portugal in the 16th century and remained under Portuguese control until 1975. Within days after declaring its independence from Portugal in 1975, East Timor was overtaken by military forces from Indonesia and was annexed as a province of Indonesia the following year. With the United Nations urging self-determination, East Timor became an independent nation in 2002, no longer under Indonesian control.

Answer:

<em>The purpose of a debate during the federal legislate process is for all parties involved to bring forward their cases and their reasons for either opposing or defending a new bill.</em>

Hence, before a new bill is passed and turned into a Federal law, senators are given a chance to discuss the merits of the proposed bill

Since, all representatives have to vote on passing a bill, this gives a chance for all kinds of debates and points of views to be heard. It is possible that with a constructive discussion and criticisms, the bill can be amended to ensure something that can be accepted by the majority.
