There are countries called Commonwealth of Nations, or Commonwealth Countries. Commonwealth Nations is often refered to as B ritish Nations, but the meaning and historical significance of the word are somewhat different. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In general, we think of the five main countries: the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa, but it is widely distributed on six continents, including Singapore, Malaysia, India, and many countries in Africa, containing 54 countries around the world with a population of about 2.53 billion, it covers an area of \u200b\u200b30 million km\u00b2 on all continents. This is about 21% of the total area on earth and corresponds to 33% of the world's population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most of these countries were self-governing provinces or colonies of the United Kingdom, and the largest and most influential colonies, such as Canada, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, gained independence from the British royal family in 1931 when the coalition was formed. Then, in the middle of the 20th century (after 1949), while increasing the autonomous management of the colonies, they established mutual relations as free and equal states. These are countries that remain under the Commonwealth flag after independence or have newly joined, and now it is a concept of membership. Among them, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are completely independent economically, politically and militarily, but the King of England (now Queen Elizabeth II) is still the monarch, and has deep ties with Britain.
