The fact that the constitution gives these positions their limited roles, makes Austrialia a type of republic, more correctly referred to as a constitutional monarchy, because that is more specific.

As I said before, I am not aware of any commonly accepted definition
of 'republic' which includes constitional monarchies.

In any case, I really doubt that everyone on this list is interested
in this discussion.  I suggest [[Talk:Australia]] or
[[Talk:Republic]].
