3 Commonwealth of Northern Iberia said:Story: The Muslims in Iberia make an alliance with the Kingdom of Navarre in the 11th century, and the Kingdom of Navarre conquers the northern parts of the Iberian peninsula, most notably the Aragonese and Castillian areas, and so Castille never becomes an independent state, let alone a colonial power.
The Caliphate of Cordoba and the Kingdom of Navarre exist as the only two countries on the peninsula other than the Kingdom of Galicia for more than 500 years, until republican revolts in the Kingdoms of Navarre and Galicia in the 17th century. Both countries become republics, and end up uniting and becoming a commonwealth, officially the Commonwealth of Northern Iberia.
Meaning: Blue for Galicia. Red for Navarre. Green for the fertile lands. Gold for the unity. And the coat of arms are in the middle.
4 Commonwealths of Oceania said:Commonwealths of Oceania
"Following the dissolution of the British Empire (due to the the constitutional crisis over the marrige of Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson and the then british governments neutrality in the Second World War), the Dominions of Australia, New Zealand and the Territories of Papua and New Guinea, formed the Treaty of Sydeny, establishing the Commonwealth of Australasia and Melanesia, a federation styled governenment for joint administration and military protection (largely due to the presence of the Japanense Empire at the time), and, although they retained the monarch as head of state, they refused to accept Edward or his heirs as the legitimate rulers, and so invested all powers within a joint elected Lord Protector, until such time as "the true heir of Windsor retakes the throne".
Over the years that followed, 17 nations (formed from the remaining european possessions and former japanese occupied territories within the remainder of Melanesia, Polynesia and Micronesia) joined the Commonwealth, their admission resulting in a rewrite of its federal constitution and the ultimate creation of the Commonwealths of Oceania, today the dominant force within the Pacific and Indian oceans."

Surrounding this core symbol, is a pair of gold, shell shaped rings, bearing between them the offical state title, the "Commonwealths of Oceania", and seven, various sized stars, representing the original seven territories that formed the original Commonwealth of Australasia and Melanesia.
The seal lays on a field of white, bordered by two strips of light blue ontop and below, representing the pure seas and skies surrounding the various membrs, whilst the white represents a new begining and peaceful future.

6 Dutch Pacific Commonwealth said:Dutch Pacific Comonwealth
The war for the Anglo-Dutch wars turned very differently. Reeling for her loss, Spain decides to deal with the devil, she teamed up with Britain in taking down Netherlands. And while Spain and Britain have successfully partitioned Netherlands, In the Pacific though, thing became very different, the Dutch had successfully took over Philippines, Formosa, and Malaya. And while most of the countries in South East Asia is primitive, the Philippines is unique for having a heavily westernized civilization with a standard of life no different to her former master, Spain.
When the exiled William III set foot on the Philippines, he decided that he will start all over again here and rename it as New Netherlands, it shall be one of the first Constitutional Monarchy in the world. He chose to make the capital of his new kingdom to be in Cebu due to three reasons:
Rather than to make a "rigid" empire, he decides to make it a commonwealth instead (pretty much the same as Poland-Lithuania), he belies that the sultanates will be happy if he gives them the right of autonomy. And for this, the Pacific Dutch Commonwealth is nicknamed, "The Poland-Lithuania of the East".
- Philippine's capital, Manila is still loyal to Spain.
- Cebu is as advance as Manila, and is also home to the oldest university in South East Asia.
- Because it is located in the very heart of his kingdom and it's Commonwealth.
The Flag
The stripes represent the Dutch monarchial colors (and the Flag of the New Netherlands), The Lion Shield represents the Orange family itself, the four roundels represent the other member-states of the commonwealth. Clockwise from Top-Left :

- Malayan states.
