EXPLAINING AUSTRALIA’S CONSTITUTION

 

HERE IS A SET OF SIX PAPERS OUTLINING HOW OUR CONSTITUTION CAME ABOUT AND WHY OUR AUSTRALIAN FOUNDING FATHERS DECIDED, JUST OVER A HUNDRED YEARS AGO, THAT AUSTRALIA SHOULD BE A CONSTITUTIONAL MONARCHY AND NOT A REPUBLIC.

Each paper can be individually downloaded and has a number of questions at the end.

With the passing of the Queen, the pages are being updated to mention the King. In the meanwhile, please replace 'Queen' for 'King' where appropriate.
