	Head of state - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In a monarchy, the monarch is the head of state.
		In parliamentary systems the head of state may be merely the nominal chief executive officer of the state, possessing theoretical executive power (hence the description of the United Kingdom monarch's government as Her Majesty's Government, a term indicating that the government is theoretically hers, not parliament's).
		A head of state is generally the notional or literal commander-in-chief of a state's armed forces, holding the highest office in all military chains of command.

	XIII NAM Sumit: Final Document of Conference of Heads of Stat or Government
		In this context, the Heads of State or Government expressed their rejection of unilateralism, which is increasingly leading to the erosion and violation of international law, to the use and threat of use of force and to pressure and coercion by certain countries as a means to achieving their policy objectives.
		The Heads of State or Government reaffirmed that criminal acts intended or calculated to provoke a state of terror in the general public, a group of persons or particular persons for whatever purposes, wherever and by whomever committed are, in any circumstance, unjustifiable, whatever the considerations or factors that may be invoked to justify them.
		The Heads of State or Government commended the Pretoria Agreement signed on 30 July, 2002 between the Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and the Government of the Republic of Rwanda in which the sovereignty of the DRC and the security concerns of Rwanda were recognised and re-emphasised.

	WESTERN AUSTRALIA - LoveToKnow Article on WESTERN AUSTRALIA
		To the north of this are the Murray, the well-known Swan, the Moore, the Greenough and the Murchison.
		Western Australia is the most sparsely populated of all the states; only the coastal fringe and the gold-fields show any evidences of settlement, and if the area were divided amongst the population there would be but ten persons to 52 sq.
		The divergence of the policy of Western Australia from that pursued by other states was caused by the inability of the government to construct lines at a time when the extension of the railway was most urgently required in the interests of settlement.

	Australia (09/05)
		Queen Elizabeth II is the head of state and since 1973 has been officially styled "Queen of Australia." The Queen is represented throughout Australia by a governor general and in each state by a governor.
		Each state is headed by a premier, who is the leader of the party with a majority or a working minority in the lower house of the state legislature.
		Australia was one of the founders of both the United Nations and the South Pacific Commission (1947), and in 1950, it proposed the Colombo Plan to assist developing countries in Asia.

		The term "head of State" does not appear in the legislation that gave the Queen her Australian titles: the Royal Style and Titles Acts of 1953 and 1973.
		Whereas the argument for the Queen's claim to be the head of State is largely based on legal and titular sovereignty, functionalism is the primary argument for claiming that the Governor-General is the head of State.
		The argument that the Governor-General alone is Australia's head of State is a relatively new argument.

	CNN.com - Child abuse: Head of state avoids resignation calls - February 20, 2002
		In the largely ceremonial vice-regal office of governor-general, Hollingworth performs head of state functions for Australia on behalf of the UK's Queen Elizabeth II and is empowered to dissolve parliament, effectively dismissing the elected government.
		Hollingworth resigned as Archbishop of the Brisbane diocese last year upon his appointment by the Queen of England as her representative as Head of State of Australia.
		The controversy comes at an embarrassing time for the Queen, who is due to visit Australia next week as part of her golden jubilee tour and to open the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting being held just north of Brisbane.

		Close neighbor Australia has finally realized that its policy of neglect toward Asia has to be turned around, but its neighbors are not wholeheartedly embracing the newfound enthusiasm, still seeing with a wary eye the once self-proclaimed U.S. "deputy sheriff" in Asia.
		Australia's unwillingness to join ASEAN's Treaty of Amity and Cooperation has been the key stumbling block to being "admitted" to the upcoming summit, which will include the 10 ASEAN states, as well as China, Japan, South Korea.
		The news should somehow reassure the United States, which is seeking observer status for the summit, because it has been concerned China is driving the summit in its bid to build a multi-polar world and raise its profile with its neighbors.

		The President of South Africa is both the Head of State and head of the National Executive (the Cabinet).
