We have a PoD in 1649 of the entire direct British royal family being killed by a more radical parliament and butterfly Cromwell thus maintaining parliamentary rule in Britain. My question is if the royal family fled to Virginia which was known to be royalist and they declared themselves a free kingdom - lets for the sake of this scenario assume that the Commonwealth does not take action against them and instead leaves them. My question is how would this kingdom develop ? Would it be viable and able to expand ?
