Topic | Question for Americans: Why are these four states "Commonwealths"? |
NoxObscuras 02/01/24 12:42:04 AM #5: | To put it simply, it's because those 4 are referred to as commonwealths in their state constitution. It was just a popular word during that time period to describe a representative democracy. The same way that the word 'republic' is used in the pledge of allegiance.
