بعدين، رد على السؤال بنفس اللغة: Passage: The Australian Constitution dates from 1901, when the Dominions of the British Empire weren't sovereign states, and doesn't use the term "head of state". As Australia is a constitutional monarchy, government and academic sources describe the Queen as head of state. In practice, the role of head of state of Australia is divided between two people, the Queen of Australia and the Governor-General of Australia, who is appointed by the Queen on the advice of the Prime Minister of Australia. بالرغم من إن الحاكم العام هو ممثل الملكة، ويمارس سلطات دستورية مختلفة باسمها، إلا إنه يمارس سلطات مهمة بشكل مستقل. الحاكم العام يمثل أستراليا عالميا، ويستقبل وزيارات دولة.
