The Eintrachtian Commonwealth, also known as the Eintrachtian Realm, is a political association of 4 member states. Some of which are either former territories of Eintrachtia or located within some former territories of Eintrachtia, especially in Antarctica. The member states share the same status of recognized sovereignty, under shared values of democracy, human rights, economic freedom such as the freedom of trade, and political and civil liberties of the citizens. The head of the Eintrachtian Commonwealth is the monarch of Eintrachtia, the Secretary-General is the chief official tasked with the overall management of commonwealth matters, while the Premier holds the representation of all member states and is in charge of the Commonwealth Cabinet.
Since the Orientalis Declaration of November 2022 with the inclusion of the Principality of Polarveinn, the commonwealth has been viewed as a new continuation to the Concord Pact and the Union of Antarctic Micronations, as the symbolism on the new flag and logo suggests, which combines elements from the former symbols of both said organizations. The Commonwealth aims to provide development and support to all member states, and to ensure democracy, human rights and economy of its member states and are progressing towards prosperity.
History
Establishment
After the overthrow of imperialist rule in 2021 after the Concorde Revolution, the remaining colonial governmental bodies came together in Concorde, the capital city of a newly reformed Eintrachtia, to discuss the matters on the future of the colonial states. Participants of the conference include Ballistelliburgh, Eintrachtia, Penguinsia and Cateringston, which sent delegates to finally sign the concluding declaration of Concorde. The declaration included the dissolve of the State of Penguinsia, the inclusion of Ballistelliburgh and Cateringston to the territorial sphere of Eintrachtia, and the formation of the Eintrachtian Imperial Confederation which was later renamed to the Eintrachtian Commonwealth with the first amendment to the Concorde Declaration.
Early development
Early members of the Commonwealth aside from the Head State include Cyrance and Polarveinn, which had previously held close relations with Eintrachtia. Cyrance, being first became a protectorate of Eintrachtia, then gone through multiple reform attempts, it had already formed a "Commonwelath-like" relation with Eintrachtia. After Polarveinn was incorporated into Eintrachtia in January 2023, both Cyrance and Polarveinn became a full member of the Eintrachtian Commonwealth.

The Commonwealth is composed of the Council and the Secretariat. The Council of the Commonwealth Realms is the main legislature of the Commonwealth, dedicated to act as a central discussion point for all inter-Commonwealth matters. The Secretariat is in charge of managing diplomatic relations of the Commonwealth, to manage Commonwealth internal matters, and to ensure internal stability and development of the Commonwealth states. The Head of the Commonwealth is the monarch of Eintrachtia according to the Concorde Declaration and reassured by the Orientalis Declaration in 2022, the seat is inherited along with the monarchy and has executive powers over the matters of the Commonwealth but is usually ceremonial and the monarch seldom interferes with the overall management of the Council.
