Why does the commonwealth of nations or british commonwealth of nations exist?
The commonwealth countries - are a 'throwback' to the colonial days. Britain was a great sea-faring nation, keen on exploring.

Although many of those early countries are now independent nations, some still retain membership of the Commonwealth.
