 | | The Commonwealth, which was founded in 1931, has no charter or constitution, and is founded more on tradition and sentiment than on political or economic factors. |
 | | The Commonwealth of Nations, formerly the British Commonwealth, but now referred to simply as the Commonwealth, is a successor organization that evolved by stages from the old British Empire. |
 | | Commonwealth ties, once important politically, militarily, and economically, are now mainly cultural and economic, although the latter have weakened considerably with the transformation of Empire into Commonwealth. |
