Prime Minister of Australia

The Prime Minister of Australia is the head of the country's government, responsible for leading the executive branch and making major national decisions. They are usually the leader of the political party with the most seats in the House of Representatives, Australia's lower house of Parliament. The Prime Minister sets policies, represents Australia internationally, and manages government operations, working with ministers who oversee specific departments. This role is similar to a chief executive in a company, but within the context of government. The Prime Minister's position can change through elections or party leadership changes.
