Cevap
The King has no day-to-day role in government, as his powers are limited by the Australian Constitution.
In a constitutional monarchy, the Head of State is a King or Queen whose powers are defined and limited by a constitution. In Australia, the King does not have a day-to-day role in running the government; instead, he is represented by the Governor-General, and the country is governed by elected representatives who follow the rules set out in the Australian Constitution.
