C/H/11. COMMONWEALTH OF NATIONS

Commonwealth of Nations, a forum, where equality and coherence is provided to all independent and sovereign nations, who had been under British rule at one point of history or another, is an important organisation that holds the only family together, not for mere nostalgia, but for vigorous constructive work for the benefit of these colonies who are at different stages of development and need external support to do so. It has been useful in spheres like education, trade, business, economic development, agriculture and irrigation, health and establishment and running of democracy amongst its Member Nations. It is not a body of power and military strength, but an association of passive help, assistance and peace.
