We have far too many Britwank TL's on this forum, and even many that don't still give the British Empire huge swathes of the world. And of course, a distressing number of posters think the British Empire was saintly and did nothing but good and violently attack those who disagree. It's not only boring, but annoying. I think it's time we reverse this.
Yes, I am proposing a Brit-Screw. Deal with it.
Your challenge is, with a POD no earlier than 1770, to either keep Britain from ever gaining the vast majority of their OTL empire, or to make them lose most of it before 1900. How you do this is up to you. Political unrest, colonial rebellions, secessions, other nations or native peoples successfully resisting the start British imperialism in those areas, all of them are acceptable. Don't just have one nation(especially the US. There's too much Ameriwank as well, although at least that has plenty of Ameriscrew to help balance it) take all it's colonies and be basically Britain in another color though, please, wanks are not what I'm looking for.
Try to keep it realistic and...go!
