Government Houses Of The British Empire




The House functions nearly as a presidential palace. It serves as the venue for the Governor's official business, serving as the official place of business for the administration, as well as the many receptions and functions hosted by the occupant.

As the office of the Governor, ''Government House'' is also used as a Metaphor to refer to the Government or the Governor.

''Government House'' is a residence for a ''governor''; so now many Commonwealth nations without the British Monarch as Head Of State name their presidential palaces ''State House'' or '' President's House ''.
