{{About||the iteration on [[CivClassic 2.0]]|The Commonwealth (CivClassic 2.0)|the iteration on [[Civcraft 2.0]]|Commonwealth (2.0)}}
'''The Commonwealth''''s iteration on [[CivMC]] is the continuation of the monarchy which was first founded in [[CivCraft 2.0|Civcraft 2.0]] by [[Sashimii]], and later on [[CivClassic|Civclassic]] by [[Cowguypig]]. The third iteration was founded on [[CivMC]] by [[Reffelruz]], who joined the nation and the game in the early days of the Classic Era.
The Commonwealth focuses on attracting citizens and tourism through cultural work, social events, as well as accommodation of interstate travel and trade via Shopside, as is a tradition for the nation going back to 2.0. The Commonwealth resides in the multi-level jungle surrounding Mount Olympus, on the equator west of the world-centre; the 2.0 formula of boroughs being right next to each other has been reenacted.

==== The Ice Road ====
[[Ice otter]] was an early settler of the Commonwealth; his large house became an early landmark of the town, and he gathered the quartz for the TRICON facility. He was friends with [[Vah]] and [[Ez2Clutch]], notorious raiders, and gave them perms to an ice road he built between his mansions in CW and [[Icenia (CivMC)|Icenia]], which they used to raid [[Butternut County|Butternut]]. Otter gave perms for the road to Jarl_Heisenberg, and ran off with his friends to raid until they got banned. He expressed gratitude to CW for having him, and CW continued to hold him in high esteem. The ice road was redirected to the Mill until Icenia closed it on their end.
The First Election▼
▲==== The First Election ====
The first election was opened with the ritual sacrifice of Dan the horse, who was in fact not harmed at all during the ritual, reflecting the protective power of Peter's sacrifice. This event marked the location of the Temple of Dan, a landmark of DAN-U. During this time, a number of mysterious texts appeared throughout the land, later revealed to have been written by a rather inebriated PergySkeel, lord and councilor. They claimed he was "of noble blood", implying rightful heirship to the throne. Some believers in Peter responded with anger, declaring the texts to be heretical; others declared that they would gladly serve him as king; this set the stage for the election.
The candidates were total opposites: Mokuno was an oldfriend, councilor, and active player with lots of experience and strong plans; he. AwesomeDracula was a new player who did not necessarily have the experience to back up his plans, but was a strong speaker - he and his campaign manager Oakshelf started the Common Front Party. Finally, AwesomeDracula believed in the king, and Mokuno did not, declaring himself true heir at the midnight hour of the election. The candidates were tied, and reffelruz gave the final tie-breaking vote to Dracula, out of his desire to guard the sacral kingship, even though on all else, he wished to vote for Mokuno. Dracula was the first newfriend leader the CW had ever had, and signaled a movement of the nation into the hands of a new generation of players. Mokuno was not seen again.
Dracula began to assemble a cabinet of mostly new players in realistic-sounding ministerial positions, such as Interior and Immigration. These were sadly not lived up to by his constituents - who instead plotted a coup against the crown - though he himself continued to make contact with neighbouring states and conduct diplomacy on behalf of the Commonwealth.
