5th CON summit

The 5th CON summit was held on 1-5 April, 2018 in Suthu, Alternia. It was the fifth summit of the Commonwealth of Official Nations and the first summit to be held in Africa.
The summit involved several speeches, votes and topics to discuss about. The agenda of the summit is to discuss about the acceptance of new members, the return of the observer status and the improvement of CON's institutions.
== Host selection ==
Host selection began after Commonwealth of Official Nations announced that they were looking forward to arrange the 5th CON summit. Unlike in the past summit, the bidding process was actually held as a result of the increased activity of CON.
The last summit was held in Monteregis as suggested by the CON Parliament. This time a total of 4 bids were sent, with Alternia coming out as the winner of an extremely constested process. Two rounds of voting were held, with every CON member voting in both of them.
Alternia chose Suthu as the host city for the summit. The venue for the summit is the Suthu International Conference Centre, located in Downtown Suthu.
