	In addition to the King's role in each of ~~her~~ realms, the Ibaglian Monarch is also the nominal [[wp:Head of the Commonwealth\|Head of the Commonwealth]].

Though this title does not imply any political power over member nations, and does not automatically belong to the monarch, only the shared Monarch of the Commonwealth Realms has ever held this title.

	Although King Charles III is also monarch of the United Kingdom and several other Commonwealth countries, each nation – including Ibagli – is sovereign and independent of the others. The identity of the sovereign is determined by the conditions set out in the [[wp:Act of Settlement 1701\|Act of Settlement]]. As a result of the [[wp:Balfour Declaration of 1926\|Balfour Declaration of 1926]] the dominions acquired the right to be considered equal to Britain rather than subordinate; an agreement that had the result of a shared Crown that operates independently in each realm rather than a unitary British Crown under which all the dominions were subordinate. The Monarchy thus ceased to be an exclusively British institution. Under the [[wp:Statute of Westminster 1931\|Statute of Westminster, 1931]], Ibagli has a common monarchy with Britain and the other Commonwealth Realms and cannot change the rules of succession without the unanimous consent of the other Realms, unless Ibagli explicitly leaves the shared monarchy relationship by means of a constitutional amendment.

	One of the most complicated features of the Ibaglian Monarchy is that it is in fact a shared monarchy. Ibagli shares its monarch with 16 other sovereign states, all of which are members of the Commonwealth of Nations. A total of 54 nations are members of the Commonwealth, many of which are republics or have their own native monarchies.

A total of 54 nations are members of the Commonwealth, many of which are republics or have their own native monarchies.

	Queen Elizabeth II is generally regarded as "Queen of Ibagli" only when she is actually present in Ibagli or when she otherwise performs ceremonies relevant to Ibagli. Some examples are conferring Ibaglian honours while in the United Kingdom, participating in Ibaglian remembrance ceremonies in other nations, or giving her approval to certain appointments which can only be performed by her, such as the appointment of a Governor-General or the creation of an honour.

	Most of the Queen of Ibagli's domestic duties are performed by the Governor-General of Ibagli.

	In addition to the Queen's role in each of her realms, the Ibaglian Monarch is also the nominal Head of the Commonwealth. Though this title does not imply any political power over member nations, and does not automatically belong to the monarch, only the shared Monarch of the Commonwealth Realms has ever held this title.

	Although Queen Elizabeth II is also monarch of the United Kingdom and several other Commonwealth countries, each nation – including Ibagli – is sovereign and independent of the others. The identity of the sovereign is determined by the conditions set out in the Act of Settlement. As a result of the Balfour Declaration of 1926 the dominions acquired the right to be considered equal to Britain rather than subordinate; an agreement that had the result of a shared Crown that operates independently in each realm rather than a unitary British Crown under which all the dominions were subordinate. The Monarchy thus ceased to be an exclusively British institution. Under the Statute of Westminster, 1931, Ibagli has a common monarchy with Britain and the other Commonwealth Realms and cannot change the rules of succession without the unanimous consent of the other Realms, unless Ibagli explicitly leaves the shared monarchy relationship by means of a constitutional amendment.

	As in the UK, the Queen's role is almost entirely symbolic and cultural, and the powers that are constitutionally hers are exercised wholly upon the advice of the elected government. In extremely exceptional circumstances, however, the Queen or Governor-General may act against such advice based upon her reserve powers. For the most part, however, the Monarch functions as a rubber stamp and a symbol of the legal authority under which all governments operate. It has been said since the death of Queen Anne (1714), the last monarch to head the British cabinet (when Ibagli was unheard of by Europeans), that the monarch "reigns" but does not "rule".

	All powers of state are constitutionally reposed in the Queen, who is represented in Ibagli by the [[Governor-General of Ibagli]]. The Governor-General is appointed by the Queen upon the advice of the [[Prime Minister of Ibagli]]. The great majority of the Queen's Ibaglian duties are performed by her representative in Ibagli except those that explicitly or implicitly require the Queen to perform them. It is also possible that if the Governor-General decided to go against the Prime Minister's or the government's advice, the Prime Minister could appeal directly to the Queen or even recommend that the Queen dismiss the Governor-General.

	The Crown's role can be seen in numerous places within Ibaglian life. For instance, the Queen is ceremonial head of the Ibaglian [[honours system]]. As such, only she can approve the creation of an honour, which she does as requested by government of Ibagli. The Governor-General administers all responsibilities relating to Ibaglian honours on the Queen's behalf.		The Crown's role can be seen in numerous places within Ibaglian life.

	The Queen is a regular visitor to Ibagli, and her image remains on Ibaglian coins and banknotes, and also on many postage stamps. Her portrait is still found in all government buildings, military installations, schools, and Ibaglian embassies abroad. Crowns are also visible on police forces badges and military badges.

	Neither the Queen nor the Governor-General has any religious role in Ibagli. There have been never been any established churches in Ibagli. This is one of the key differences from the Queen's role in the United Kingdom where she is Supreme Governor of the Church of England. As the Queen of Ibagli is also the Queen of the United Kingdom, the monarch cannot be a Roman Catholic or married to one and must be in communion with the Church of England upon ascending the throne.
