Territory of Westfield 

About the Territory

Westfield is the newest territory of the United Commonwealth of Greenwick, formally established following the passage of federal legislation last year. While not recognized as a full state, Westfield operates with significant legislative autonomy, allowing it to adapt governance to local needs while remaining aligned with national law.

Westfield officially separated from Westmarch in February, marking a new chapter in Greenwick’s territorial development and decentralised governance model.
