From 1788 to 1974, the national anthem of Australia was "God Save the Queen." This anthem was used during the colonial period and continued to be the official anthem until "Advance Australia Fair" was officially adopted in 1984. "God Save the Queen" was traditionally associated with the British monarchy and reflected Australia's colonial ties. The shift to "Advance Australia Fair" marked a move towards a more distinct Australian identity.
