Australia formally installed King Charles III -- the first new monarch in 70 years -- as the country's head of state in a ceremony Sunday.

The proclamation was made by Australia's Governor-General David Hurley at the nation's parliament in Canberra. A series of proclamation ceremonies will also take place across state parliaments in the country on Sunday.

A national day of remembrance will be held on September 22, after Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has returned from Britain, where he will attend the Queen's funeral. A memorial service will also be held on that day, which has been declared a one-off public holiday.

"From her famous first trip to Australia, the only reigning sovereign to ever visit, it was clear Her Majesty held a special place in her heart for Australia," Albanese said in a statement Friday.

"Fifteen more tours before cheering crowds in every part of our country confirmed the special place she held in ours."

In 1999 Australia held a referendum on whether to remove the Queen as head of state, but it was defeated.

On Friday, Sydney's iconic Opera House was lit up with a tribute to the Queen.

Neighboring commonwealth country New Zealand on Sunday also officially proclaimed King Charles III as its head of state in a televised ceremony.

Is monarchy still relevant in the 21st century or should we just abolish it and move on? Imagine Australia was a colony of Britain. UK keeps riding on past glory.

So, Australia is a colony of Britain?

While Biafrans are still finding some axes to grind with British monarchy, New Zealand and Australia swore allegiance to Britain.



Can we pass this contraption back to Britain, too?
