The current constitution of the Commonwealth was drafted in 2005, by Prime Minister al-Malik and Queen Hemali I, to create a nation in which political and civil freedoms blossom, the economy thrives, and the government is transparent.

The D'Oyly Court reviews all legislation passed by parliament, and it can either inform Parliament of a judicial concern, abrogate the law entirely due to unconstitutionality, or pass it on the Sovereign with approval.

Society

Civil and political rights are highly valued in British Londinium. The nation's schoolchildren are some of the most foul-mouthed in the country, and same-sex marriages are becoming increasingly common, skateparks can be found in every city, the Supreme Court vehemently protects civil rights and the right to privacy, British Londinium is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, and artists are pillars of society. Citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, the government helps teach children how to kill a man from six paces, and every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government. Convicted murderers are free to walk the streets provided they attend rehabilitation classes, refugees from other nations are flocking to British Londinium's border, the nation is currently revamping its entire education system, and murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour. Crime is totally unknown.
