## Birth places

As of January 2025, five of the six states claim the distinction of being the birthplace of a prime minister. Twelve prime ministers, those born prior to the federation of Australia, were born in British colonies within Australia, rather than independent Australian states. The birthplaces of seven prime ministers are decisively within sovereign states that are separate from Australia, including six in Great Britain, and one in Chile.
The number of prime ministers born per state are:
* One: South Australia and Tasmania.
* Three: Queensland.
* Nine: Victoria.
* Ten: New South Wales
States and territories that have not born a prime minister: Australian Capital Territory, Northern Territory, Western Australia.
