  • Yes we are still following the queen and so therefore we are a monarchy. Although Australia has its own rules constitution it is not a republic like America.

  • The monarchy of Australia is a constitutional system of government in which a hereditary monarch is the sovereign of Australia.

  • Australia's name is "The Commonwealth of Australia". And it DOES have a Monarch (Queen Elizabeth II) .

  • agh! Everyone is wrong!!! get ur facts people.

    we are a CONSTITUTIONAL MONARCHY!

    that means we have both a MONARCH (Queen of England), AND a parliament, PM etc.

  • Australia doesn't have a monarch (which is just another word for a king) so it isn't a monarchy. However, it is still part of the British Commonwealth.
