The Commonwealth of Queensland is a unitary state under a constitutional monarchy. Albert of Queensland is the monarch and head of state and well as 6 other independent countries. The monarch has "the right to be consulted, the right to encourage, and the right to warn". The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Queensland is uncodified and consists mostly of a collection of disparate written sources, including statutes, judge-made case law and international treaties, together with constitutional conventions. The Queenslandian Parliament can perform "constitutional reform" simply by passing Acts of Parliament, and thus has the political power to change or abolish almost any written or unwritten element of the constitution. No Parliament can pass laws that future Parliaments cannot change.

Administrative divisions

Constituent country and territories

The Constituent country and Territories are federated administrative divisions in Queensland, ruled by regional governments that constitute the second level of governance between the federal government and local governments. States are self-governing polities with incomplete sovereignty (having ceded some sovereign rights to federation) and have their own constitutions, legislatures, departments, and certain civil authorities (e.g. judiciary and law enforcement) that administer and deliver most public policies and programs. Territories can be autonomous and administer local policies and programs much like the states in practice, but are still constitutionally and financially subordinate to the federal government and thus have no true sovereignty.
