Hi all, since the recent passing of Queen Elizabeth II, I’ve been learning more about the monarchy and the commonwealth. I saw a video by J.J. McCulllough in which he said that he knew people in Canada who thought that because the British monarch was the monarch of Canada, the UK, and other commonwealth nations, that meant they could live, study, work abroad, etc in those nations. This isn’t the case, but was there ever a point after WW1, maybe even after WW2 where the UK ever came close to creating an EU Schengen type of deal with its colonies/other commonwealth nations, or even an outright unified federalized government like the United States or Germany? If either of these were the case what could have happened to make it happen, and would it encompass all, most, or only a few nations?
