I am not all that sure my query would interest all that many;however that is beside the point I guess:
Obviously, I do not know everything, but for that matter I never will anyway. My thought is, why is it that Malta does not appoint a governor although a member of the Commonwealth of Nations? In contrast, Australia appoints a governor and in spite of not being a republic it is still a member of the Commonwealth of Nations much like Canada as well as other such countries. Thanking you in anticipation.
Malta used to appoint a Governor till December 1974 when the Island became a republic. Hence a President is appointed. Malta is a Republic within the Commonwealth. A Governor is appointed to represent the British Monarch when he/she is the head of state of that particular state within the Commonwealth. This is not the case as regards Malta
very interesting and imformative.
