The Provident Royal Commonwealth of the United Transeisdzarian & Saka Nations, informally the Transeisdzarian Commonwealth (also referred to as the Kingdom of the Rift, the Commonwealth, or the Rift), is a sovereign state of the Small Magellanic Cloud. Its territorial space encompasses the majority of the known settled space of the Great Rift and beyond, bordering the Phoenix Empire along the coreward limits of the nebula and the CoDominium at the terminus of the Negev-Ruhazani lines. The Commonwealth is the fourth-largest state of the Small Magellanic Cloud.
Its government is described as a federal union with a common monarch. The Official and Royal Capital is the system of Concordia's March, with the warship SMS Mikado serving as the auxiliary administrative and legislative seat. The current monarchs since 29 February 5323 - coinciding with the ratification of the February Constitution - are the twin Shahzadas Ardeshir and Saki, though their powers have been assumed by a Regency Council led by their mother Ravshana Marika al-Lasalle until the end of their minority. The Commonwealth consists of over two hundred autocephalous constellations in the Metropolitan Rift as well as a number of Crownland prefectures, direct administrative dependencies, along the Negev-Ruhazani lines.
