	Commonwealth Realm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Commonwealth Realm is any one of the 16 sovereign states of the Commonwealth of Nations that separately recognise Queen Elizabeth II as their monarch.
		The Commonwealth Realms are each members of, but should be distinguished from, the Commonwealth of Nations, which is an organisation of mostly former British colonies, the majority of which do not have the Queen as their Head of State.
		The Commonwealth Realms are sovereign states, the United Kingdom no longer holding any legislative power over any besides itself, although some countries continue to use the British Judicial Committee of the Privy Council as part of their judiciary.

		The Commonwealth of Nations, usually known as The Commonwealth, is an association of independent sovereign states, almost all of which are former territories of the British Empire.

		Commonwealth membership was held to have lapsed until 1997, after racialist provisions in the republican constitution were repealed and reapplication for membership made.

	The Commonwealth Realms
		Today, other than South Africa which became a republic and left the Commonwealth in 1961, these countries are included in what are termed ‘Commonwealth Realms’ which are those nations which have been constituted ‘Under The Crown of the United Kingdom’.
		However the Realms could in no way be described as: “overseas countries and territories having special relations with the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland” as our arrangements are solely with The Crown and not with the Government or the country of the UK.
		For instance, in Australia the main prerogative of The Queen, as opposed to The Crown, is to appoint and dismiss the Governor-General and similarly the State Governors, although these actions are always at the request of the Prime Minister or State Premiers.
