The Commonwealth of Hamland is a federation of smaller states currently including Hamland, Passas, the Region of the Isles, Anglia, Monovia, Neo Patrova, Schönland and Scottania-Petrynsk. Each region is entitled to its own Governorship and representation in the parliament of the Commonwealth who can elect a Prime Minister. The head of state is the Seneschal. The Commonwealth of Hamland was preceded by the Kingdom of Hamland.
History
The Commonwealth of Hamland was founded in August 2013 following the reform of the Kingdom of Hamland. These reforms marked the beginning of a revival of the Hammish state as well as significant development of the nations of the Commonwealth. The new Commonwealth differed from the Kingdom mainly due to its federal structure which granted constituent nations significantly more autonomy over their governance and cultural development.
The Commonwealth inherited the diplomatic relations of the Kingdom of Hamland including a close alliance with Ashkenatza and Alexandria. The revival of the state put a stronger emphasis on the politics with the political system expanding to include elections to the Chachis Del Nutra. The first Prime Minister of the Commonwealth was Lord Lewis of the Region of the Isles who was followed by Duke Sinclair who was elected in the November 2013 Hammish General Election. Each of these Prime Ministers followed policies which expanded the Commonwealth's economy, diplomatic relations, cultural development as well as establishing the current Commonwealth Space Program.
