With no PoDs prior to the Act of Union in 1707, how can the subsequent "British Empire" be as large, powerful, and economically dominant as possible? As of then, they had naval and trading posts in Europe, Africa, and India, in addition to their more estaished possessions in Ireland and the Western Hemisphere, so I expect they had the necessary footholds to expand further; so how do we make that happen, and how far coukd we take it?
