What does the commonwealth star represent on the Australian flag?

Number of states in Australia
Unity of the Australian people
Representation of the federal government
Seven territories including six states and a territory

The correct answer is: Seven territories including six states and a territory

The Commonwealth Star on the Australian flag represents the federation of the six states and one territory that make up the Commonwealth of Australia. Option A is incorrect because while there are six states in Australia, there is also one territory that makes up the Commonwealth. Option B is incorrect because the Commonwealth Star does not specifically represent the unity of Australian people, but rather the unity of the states and territories. Option C is incorrect because the federal government is represented by the larger seven-pointed star below the Commonwealth Star.
