		Most Commonwealth Realms where the British Sovereign is head of state omit the title "defender of the faith" from their country's full official title given to the Monarch, while maintaining the initial By the Grace of God, e.g.

		DEFENDER OF THE FAITH: GEOFFREY ELTON AND THE PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY
