Her Majesty's Government (term) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Her Majesty's Government (term)
The phrase Her Majesty's Government (''His Majesty's Government'' during the reign of a male monarch) is a formal term referring to the government of a Commonwealth realm or one of constituent provinces, states or territories. In use since at least the height of the British Empire, the phrase has been inherited and integrated into the countries that emerged from that polity. ==History== In the British Empire, the term ''His (or Her) Majesty's Government'' was originally only used by the imperial government in London. As the Empire developed into the Commonwealth of Nations, the former Dominions came to be seen as realms of the sovereign equal in status to the United Kingdom, and, from the 1920s and 1930s, the form ''His Majesty's Government in...'' began to be used by the United Kingdom and Dominion governments to differentiate between independent jurisdictions, such as His Majesty's Government in the Irish Free State. Colonial, state, and provincial governments, on the other hand, continued to use the lesser title ''Government of ()'', and eventually the phrase used in the former Dominions altered to mirror that of the UK, becoming, for example, ''Her Majesty's Australian Government''.
