Austrailia isn't independent???? Thats news to me.

Thought after WW2 all remaining empires cut their last connections with their colonies.

I see no real good argument not too. Unlike the UK there isn't a big Queen tourism boom or anything as far as i know.

If anything just take one of the branch families and make them your royalty if you are going to have it.

Absolute Cognatic Gavelkind is the way to go for sure.

One error in the op: the queen doesn't govern aussie, she doesn't govern the uk either. In some respects i'd rather have a ceremonial monarch than a governing president. But it's the wider mooching family that comes with the monarch which is problematic. The world's richest dole bludgers aye.

Australia can have William's line, we in the UK(or maybe just England) will take Harry's.

You don't get more English than a Prince Hal and King Henry 9th.
