The Crown Commonwealth of Praetonia is a unitary Empire whose mainland is located in North-East Haven, surrounded by the Vascian Gulf, a sea which encompasses Praetonia's mainland territorial waters and Economic Exclusion Zone. The sea contains numerous small islands claimed as Crown Dependancies, many of them housing small military observation and defence bases.
Mainland Praetonia has no land borders and proposals to build a tunnel to nearby Willink have been consistently rejected due to national security concerns. Praetonia does, however, share land borders through her colonies with a number of countries, including Sarzonia, Hamptonshire and the Borman Empire. Praetonia's several former colonies which have recently been legally amalgamated to form a unitary Crown Commonwealth of Praetonia. The former colonies maintain very strong cultural and private economic links which have been strengthened by complete political union.
Praetonia has a strong free market economy and a well funded and professional military, of which the navy is especially well regarded. Praetonia wields a great deal of diplomatic power through her foundership of the Sovereign League and her membership of both ACTO and APOC and pursues a foreign policy aimed at promoting Praetonia's national interest, free trade and liberty. In recent years relations with the CAD powers formerly viewed as enemies have thawed.
History
Praetonia was a feudal monarchy until the First Civil War in the 17th century. This war culminated in the Battle of Kingston and the Storming of the Palace in 1653, during which the King was captured by the Patrician Parliamentary army and subsequently executed after a public trial, the rest of the Royal Family going into exile in Questers. In 1654 the Grand Commonwealth of Praetonia was proclaimed
