The current head of state of Australia is HM Queen Elizabeth II, Queen of Australia.

Queen Elizabeth II is the titular head of state. The Governor general instructs the Queen at the behest of the Prime minister or the constitution. However, authority lies with the Prime Minister who is the majority leader in the lower house of Parliament.

Australia as a whole does not have a "chief minister". The two mainland territories, the Northern Territory and the Australian Capital territory, each has a "chief minister" who is much the same as the Premier in the states.

The main governmental leader in Australia is the Prime Minister who, in 2013, is Julia Gillard.
