Trump swearing loyalty to King Charles wasn't in my predictions for this year

there are 56 members of the commonwealth of nations. of those, only 15 are commonwealth realms. the rest are republics or a different monarchy.

india was the first republic member when they transitioned from dominion (with british monarch as head of state) to a republic in 1950.

commonwealth members need only recognize king charles as the 'head of the commonwealth', which is a purely ceremonial position.
