The United Commonwealth was founded on 6/2/2008 in the aftermath of the great energy crash as the major countries of the world disintegrated into chaos due to shortages in food and oil. Starting with only his neighborhood, a young man by the name of Noah Kahn declared independance from the ashes of the federal and state governments in an effort to protect the local citizens from thugs and criminals.
