The West Shalegho Commandery was a Pardal Republic in Chanda controlled by the People's Liberation Army between 1934 to 1951. It originated during the Great War when the PLA fought in the Chandan Insurgency against the Heavenly Xiaodongese Empire. Like other Pardal Republics, it was not a state in the conventional sense, but rather a region controlled by the PLA who directly governed over the civilian population.

The Commandery traces its origins to the 1931-1933 uprisings, which gradually saw Xiaodongese control gradually reduced to the urban areas in Chanda. The PLA would formally declare the Commandery in late 1934, during the Xiaodongese withdraw from the region. Due to the international notoriety of the Green Pardals, no country established diplomatic relations with the Commandery, recognizing the Provisional Government of the Chandan Republic instead. As a result, it had mostly hostile relations with rest of the world and occasional border clashes with its neighbors, especially Xiaodong. By the 1940s, the defeat of all other the Pardal Republics, led the Commandery to focus on their survival instead of actively seeking to form a pan-Coius state.

In the late 1940s, the PLA began to suffer from infighting caused by ethnic tensions, dispute over national allegiances, and ideological disagreements. In late 1948, the PLA collapsed into infighting, largely between between Pan-Coius and Pan-Satrian factions. By the next year the fighting, the fighting risked growing into a full civil war. In September a faction of the PLA lead by Nurlan Sabir formed an alliance with local militias to stop the fighting. Togehet they defeated rival factions in the Chandan National Revolution. After securing power, he embraced the establishment of a republic to end their status as an international pariah. In 1951, Sabir formally Declared the Republic of Chanda, which marked the end of the Commandery.

As the direct predecessor of the current Chandan state, the legacy of the Commandery is significant in the country. During the establishment of the Republic, most of the PLA leadership transitioned to domestic politics, where they developed Birlikism. The People's Liberation Army was incorporated into the Republic where it continued to have a vital role in the country's domestic affairs.
