2. New South Wales

3. Victoria

4. South Australia

5. Western Australia

1. The Australian Antarctic Territory (in Antarctica)

2. Coral Seas Territory or Islands, which are a group of uninhabited islands in the Coral Sea, northeast of Australia

3. Norfolk Island, which is in the Pacific Island off Australia's east coast, between Australia, New Zealand and New Caledonia

4. Territory of Heard and McDonald Islands - these islands are sub-Antarctic, positioned in the Indian ocean, about two-thirds of the way from Madagascar to Antarctica

5. Territory of Ashmore Reef and Cartier Island, which are in the Indian ocean in southwest Asia, halfway between northwestern Australia and Timor island

6. Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands, which is in the Indian Ocean, about half way between Australia and Sri Lanka.

7. Territory of Christmas Island, which is in the Indian Ocean, about 2600 kilometres northwest of Perth
