Unit 3: The Commonwealth of nations (2nde_gr2)
Quote of the Day:
Queen
Elisabeth II wanted to distance the Commonwealth from the British Empire. While
the British Empire was based on colonial domination, inequality and control,
as opposed to the Commonwealth that is presented
as a free voluntary association of equal nations, built on shared
values such as: friendship and loyalty (instead of control
and oppression), freedom and peace (instead of
conquest and conflict).
Africa is the
continent with the most Commonwealth countries with a total of 21.
Then,
in the Americas there are 14 Commonwealth countries. Oceania comes on the third
position with 11 Commonwealth countries. Then,
Asia has 8 countries belonging to the Commonwealth. Finally,
Europe has 6 Commonwealth countries.
