The establishment of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) was a unique constitutional and geographic undertaking. Which of the following accurately describes the ACT's physical relationship with the surrounding region and its specific legal status within the Commonwealth of Australia?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: It is an inland territory entirely surrounded by the state of New South Wales, functioning as a territory rather than a state under the Australian Constitution.

Cevap

The correct answer is that the Australian Capital Territory is an inland territory entirely surrounded by New South Wales and functions as a territory rather than a state.
The correct answer accurately synthesizes two critical facts about the ACT: it is an 'enclave' (a territory entirely surrounded by another jurisdiction, in this case, New South Wales) and its legal status is that of a territory rather than a state. This reflects the constitutional requirement to have a dedicated federal seat of government that is not part of any state.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Cevap

The Australian Capital Territory is situated within the state of New South Wales, at a distance of at least 100 miles (160 kilometres) from Sydney.
The correct answer is correct because the Australian Capital Territory was created specifically to house the national capital, Canberra, on land that was part of New South Wales. The location was chosen to satisfy the constitutional requirement that the capital be in New South Wales but sufficiently far (at least 100 miles) from Sydney to settle the rivalry with Melbourne.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the geographical relationship between the ACT and surrounding states.
The ACT is an enclave, meaning it is entirely surrounded by the state of New South Wales.
This is a fundamental geographic fact about the territory's location.
2
Recall the historical compromise regarding the location of the national capital.
The Australian Constitution mandated that the capital be in New South Wales but at least 100 miles (160 km) from Sydney.
This explains why the specific site for the ACT was chosen where it is today.
3
Verify the status of the ACT.
It is a Territory, not a State.
Territories have different constitutional powers compared to States.
