Commonwealth
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
The Commonwealth is an organization made up of countries which used to belong to the British Empire. The Queen of England is the head of the commonwealth but nobody cares about her opinion anymore.
While being part of the Commonwealth used to mean a lot, it no longer means anything much at all. The royal family doesn't have any influence over any of the counties in the commonwealth due to democracy and all the countries involved in it have all the rights of a republic. The only reason anyone would leave the commonwealth would be so they can call their leader President instead of Prime Minister. The title of some old guy in a government job makes no difference to anything and changing the name of your country really isn't worth the paperwork.
The only reason to leave the Commonwealth is if your country has the retarded mindset of a 16 year old girl screaming at her parents "YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME! I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT". This is basically the reason why Fiji is suspended/grounded from the commonwealth. Braking international laws is a bad thing and might get you in trouble. Another thing that is a bad thing is spelling "breaking" wrong. The Commonwealth does it all the time for the lulz, so you might get off free too. No biggie.
[edit] The Commonwealth Games
This sporting event is much like the Olympics except only for members of the commonwealth. It is very likely the only reason Australia doesn't become a republic. It's not really a competition, it's more like an hilarious comedy routine where Australia dances around giving shitty third world countries wedgies and flushing their heads in toilets. You almost feel sorry for the other countries when Australia kicks their asses, but that's a lot like troll's remorse, it can be cured when you think of the pure lulz.
[edit] The War on Independence
The American war on independence was fought so they could escape it as England used to be a serious business fucking super power. Now, however, the USA is far more powerful than the UK much like a retarded child gone wild. England now licks the juicy asshole of the USA at every given opportunity officially giving the USA revenge and pwnage to the max.
