Territories in Australia exist as a way to manage regions that are not part of a state but still require governance. They often encompass areas with unique geographical, cultural, or administrative needs, such as the Northern Territory and the Australian Capital Territory. The federal government oversees these territories, which can have different levels of self-governance compared to the states. This system allows for tailored management of diverse regions while maintaining national unity.
