If the British people decide that they don't want a Monarch any more,
there are no plans to do this at the moment, only rumblings and the
odd discussion on bad news days.

But if it came to pass, that we no longer have one, what will the other
countries do, the ones who admire the Monarchy and are loyal to it,
will they still recognise him as their Monarch, also Prince William, when
he inherits the throne, will they move the center of operations to another
Country?

Here is a list of his realm.
Apart from New Zealand, King Charles III is the monarch and head of state for
fourteen sovereign countries, collectively known as the Commonwealth realms,
Antigua and Barbuda, Australia, the Bahamas, Belize, Canada, Grenada, Jamaica,
New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent
and the Grenadines, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu and the United Kingdom (UK).

This is just another of my thoughts and is not a fact.

Very enlightening. I never thought of 'that'. Keep thinking Mike.

There was that controversial tour in 2022 when many believed Prince William and Kate's Platinum Royal tour was meant to secure the Monarchy in the Caribbean but instead were met with protests in Belize, Jamaica, and Bahamas. Barbados, transitioned to a republic.

But growing calls to cut formal ties with the Queen and campaigns for slavery reparations ignited a reckoning with the region’s colonial past. Jamaican's aren't happy with Prince William and Kate because they are due to inherit money accumulated from subjecting the island to colonial rule and slavery. The day after they visited Jamaica, the government there had begun the process of transitioning the island nation—which is the largest English speaking country in the Caribbean—to a republic.

According to Time Magazine the Monarch used to be heads of state in 56 countries but now the majority no longer recognize it as such.

That is interesting information Lara, we heard about it in the
news broadcasts, but they kept the report light/lite.

Below is a link to what the British Empire looked like at its peak,
the image is too big to post, but in the link it is interactive and I
was able to enlarge it to read the small print.

Constitutionally, King Charles is Head of State, not only for Australia, but also for each of the states. We still refer to Crown land. Each state and the Commonwealth has an appointed representative of the Monarch with the title Governor (states) or Governor General.

If Great Britain becomes a republic, we would have to do the same by modifying our Constitution. It would make very little difference to the way we are governed because we are a functioning parliamentary democracy.
