A commonwealth government is one exists to protect the welfare of the citizens as a whole rather than a small priveleged class (like nobility and kings). Four states have the formal title "Commonwealth of..." rather than "State of..."; however there is no real difference between Commonwealths and States in how they operate. The four Commonwealths are Massachusetts, Virginia, Pennsylvania and Kentucky.

Why do the two Australian territories have reduced levels of government?
The territories of Australia are established by the Commonwealth government, and are therefore subject to Commonwealth laws. The Commonwealth may deign to give them powers to establish laws in some areas, but essentially this is at the discretion of the Commonwealth government. The territories are really just extensions of the Commonwealth government and its laws. When the six colonies federated as states, their powers were defined by the Constitution. The territories were established a decade after federation, and although there is provision for them to become states at a later time, until that happens they are still subject only to Commonwealth law.
