Australian Realm

The Australian Realm is a collection of independent countries and territories that share a common constitutional connection to the British Crown. It includes Australia (the nation), New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, and some Pacific island nations and territories. Each member functions as an independent sovereign state but recognizes the monarch as their symbolic head of state. The Realm operates under a shared constitutional framework, with the Crown playing a ceremonial role rather than direct authority, fostering a sense of unity while maintaining each country's sovereignty.
