Could a Code Geass Like TL Happen?

Hopefully this is not an ASB completely, I just would like to know if it is possible to form a Britannia in America while losing the British Iles during the war with Napoleon.

Could something like this happen in OTL?

Didn't something like this (the Britannia in America) happen in Thande's TL?
 
If you're thinking of "Look To The West," here's the link.

Something like this also happens in "We'll Meet Again," but I'm not sure if that TL is dead or just sleeping.
 
Or a genuine TL where the Roman Republic either remains a republic, or evolves into a small empire with just Iberia, Italy and southern Gaul with a Britannian Kingdom in the north, occupying northern Gaul.

Well in the CG timeline the first part of the Celtic beating the Romans would cause so many butterflies that there might not even be a Plantagenet Dynasty, let alone a Tudor one. So starting with Queen Elizabeth having a bastard son, I suppose he could be accepted, especially if its either that or losing its independence to Scotland. Plus he would be a continuation of the Tudor dynasty, bastard or not. Next, the US losing the American revolution. The idea that Ben Franklin would side with Britain is a little ASB, but not impossible. Without help from France I'd bet the revolution would fail. Finally Napoleon winning the battle of Trafalgar and invading England would be like Portugal in OTL. Portugal being invaded with the royal family fleeing to Brazil. All in all, it would be very difficult for a code geass tl to happen, but not impossible.
 
Only a few parts of the Code Geass TL could be plausible, and the rest are ASB. Elizabeth having a husband, plausible if Bloody Mary is somehow killed off and Edward VI continues to reign. Caesar's failed invasion of the British Isles, it could happen, though this would result in the early dent in his political career. Though I'd like to see a Celtic kingdom during Roman times established. Britain not pissing off the American colonists, could have occured with the right Prime Minister in charge.
 
You have to ignore different parts of the Britannian history (easiest way to do this would to argue points that don't make sense, eg. Caesar's failed invasion and a super Briton tribe, because the butterflies would be massive). Even then, having a super-state that stretches from Canada down to Brazil and Argentina is really, REALLY hard, if not impossible.

EDIT: I meant to add that bits of history that don't make sense could be argued as propaganda by the monarchy.

That's right, I could see maybe, just maybe a Britannia controlling the North American continent, but all of the Americas would be next to impossible.
 
Well, the U.S. has some degree of control of all the countries in the Americas OTL, with the possible exception of Brazil. The main difficulty IMO is giving the Britannians an expand at all costs or die mentality, since the U.S. OTL could have, theoretically annexed Mexico at several points, and interfered with virtually every south American nation militarily OTL. That said, Code Geass, while fun, is a scenario so close to impossible (even without geass) that it is pretty much ASB.
