Sydney Australia's modern capital overcame competition from Melbourne to be selected as the national headquarters?
No. It did not. Sydney and Melbourne were in heavy competition to each be named the new capital city of the Commonwealth of Australia.

Melbourne was never the capital city of Australia. Considerable rivalry existed between Sydney and Melbourne, Australia's two largest cities.

From 1901 to 1927, the Australian Parliament met in Parliament House, Melbourne, which it borrowed from the parliament of the state of Victoria, which in turn sat in the Exhibition Building. This had to occur whilst the city of Canberra and Parliament House was being built.

Melbourne was never awarded the status of being Australia's national capital, even temporarily.
