History

Origins

The Dale Commonwealth was the idea of President Danny Clarke of the Dale Republic as a way to create a community of pro-dale states willing to relinquish tiny amounts of internal governence to the Commonwealth Assembly and intergrate their military and economics with that of the Dale Armed Forces and Dale Republic Pound and Dale Central Bank. The idea was propossed to the members of the Inter-Micronational Treaty Organization and had interest in the idea was apparent very quickly, espacially from Westsylvania and Kinsovea.

Structure

Secretary-General of the Dale Commonwealth

The President of the Dale Commonwealth is an unelected head of the Dale Commonwealth who gains the position after being elected as president of the Dale Republic. The President of the Dale Commonwealth is same person as the elected President of the Dale Republic and the first President of the Dale Commonwealth was Danny Clarke.

Commonwealth Assembly

The Commonwealth Assembly is the legislature of the Dale Commonwealth is controlled from. It is filled by the heads of government or states of each member state (listed below).

Intergration

Military Intergration

As part of the Dale Commonwealth Agreement all new member states must intergrate their main armed forces into the Dale Armed Forces with government defence forces and police forces being an exception as they remain under full control of the members states and not the Dale Armed Forces. One major change to the Dale Armed Forces because of the Dale Commonwealth is the reintroduction of the Dale Navy as part of the Dale Armed Forces because of these new members having navies unlike the Dale Republic.

Dale Navy

When Westsylvania declared that they intended to join the Dale Commonwealth the idea of reinstating the Dale Navy was brought up by commander-in-cheif, Danny Clarke. This was because the Dale Republic had not had a navy since the political transition from the Kingdom of the Dale Empire to the Dale Republic ment the end of the Royal Dale Navy, and Westsylvania having a navy, even if it was made up of a single vessel made the consideration of the Dale Navy.

Economic Intergration

Another arrangement found in as part of the Dale Commonwealth Agreement is the economic intergration and the introduction of the Dale Republic Pound for all member states. The aim of the economic intergration is to increase and develop economic abilities of the Dale economy and all other members and visa versa. A exception to some autonomy avaliable economiclly is in the creation of overseas branches of the Dale Central Bank.
