It means the same thing as a state. Virginia, Kentucky, Massachusetts, and I think maybe Pennsylvania call themselves a Commonwealth, too.
 
omg wtf... I am stupid. I just looked up commonwealth rofl. Im VERY VERY stupid. And its late so give me a break lol
 
The use of "commonwealth" in the name Commonwealth of Kentucky doesn't have any particular significance ? it means the same thing as "state" and was commonly used in the eighteenth century. Kentucky probably used it since it was formed from Virginia, which had used it earlier. Pennsylvania and Massachusetts also use commonwealth. The colonial use of commonwealth probably derives from the Commonwealth period in England and might sometimes have been used to distinguish royal colonies from the proprietary colonies. The term is now also used to designate autonomous areas associated with the United States, such as the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

Ya, I see that now. I actually knew that, but it just slipped my mind, and when she said it she was like "Im not going to explain" and no one laughed (obviously it was a joke now) so I figured it was something for real and I just didn't realize wtf she was talking about.



OH well, Im dumb. 🙁
