Cordonia, also called the Cordonian Commonwealth, is a country in western Europe. Cordonia has different minimum legal ages for various legal activities codified in national statue, royal decrees and court rulings. Generally, minimum legal ages were created by Cordonia's twelve duchies but subsequently unified at the national level in 1961 following constitutional reforms proposed by King Dirk II and ratified by the Parliament of Cordonia. After 1961, the general age of majority was set at 21 years of age to match neighboring countries influenced by British common law. In 1970, under the Ages of Capacity Act, the age of majority was lowered to 20 years of age and has remained that age since.
