Something else.  Union would be jo'e, intersection ku'a.  Commonality is 
 jo'u and is more nebulously defined.

baxso reflects the fact that the common language of the two countries is 
one language, and thus primarily pertains to that language, and in 
particular to those aspects of the language which are indeed common to 
speakers in both countries.
