The Republic Advisory Committee submitted two Volumes (Volume I - The Options and Volume II - the Appendices) to the Australian prime minister in late 1993. Part of Volume II was concerned with the international experience in moving from monarchical to republican headships of state. Six international reports were commissioned from local experts; four of the countries were former [[Commonwealth of Nations|Commonwealth]] [[Commonwealth realm|monarchies]], while two had experienced their own regime change when their own monarchies (the [[Hohenzollern]]s in Germany, the [[Habsburg]]s in Austria) were replaced by republics.
