Unincorporated Territories

Unincorporated Territories (also known as Outside Territories, Non-regional Territories) are areas of land which belong to the Commonwealth, but were not part of a nation before the Commonwealth and are thus not managed by a regional government.
Their existence has been criticised by politicians. Anna Smit claimed that the territory north-east of Thorildhøj actually belongs to Thorildhøj. Meanwhile the, now excluded from elections, Lanborg Patriot Party wished to regain unpopulated territory that was claimed by the Lanborgian Empire during the War of Dignity and never formally reclaimed by Årania.

Justification

Advanced Settlements

After the creation of the Commonwealth, there were many small settlements scattered around the the Commonwealth's territory, which weren’t part of the [[Commonwealth], but did fulfill the Commonwealth's Technological Requirements to not be considered 'tribal' and also regularly discoursed with settlements inside of the Commonwealth.
Under this justification, the settlements Bergen, Trefal and Johannsbro were admitted into the Commonwealth in 0.87Ð.
In 3.50Ð a new law was passed which allowed any technologically advanced and democratic settlement to join the Commonwealth by application, which will be reviewed by the Commonwealth Assembly.

Unambiguous Jurisdiction

The railway line between Høvemark and Kalkdui was partially on land which didn’t belong to a region. This approach, while questionable, was not a major problem until in 11.48Ð where a person decided to impede the regular railway operations which caused hours of delay for at least five scheduled train services. Following this incident, both the Court of Høvemark and the Commonwealth General Court argued it is their responsibility to prosecute and punish the culprit. This ambiguity was only resolved in 12.81Ð when the Commonwealth Assembly decided to declare all land within one Kilometer of the railway which is not already part of a region to be an Unincorporated Territory of the Connonwealth.
