These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

[Gentleman Johnny]

These war updates hit differently in light of current events.

There's some very strong worldbuilding in the writing of this timeline, finding a good balance between full allohistory and OTL parallels. The alternate US is certainly one of the more interesting variations I've seen on this nation. I'm curious why and how the war against them turned so sour for the British Empire; what happened to all the regional rebellions in Texas, Louisiana, and the South in general? I really thought the US would come apart at the seams, but its internal dysfunction seems to have been drastically overstated. Then again, the foreign invasion seems to have paradoxically rallied the people behind Hogan. Better the devil you know?

Out of curiousity, is there any rule or etiquette against posting stuff from the TFS Discord? I’ve shared info from there before since some things don’t make their way into the big updates.

i don't know about it, but i guess no?

Um, why Mexico sanctioned California?

I believe it was over refugee policy towards Americans.

This is correct, Mexico put them in place for Californias... erm, lackluster refugee policy

I live about a half hour from Mason. That was a surreal article to read.

Oh wow, I can only imagine!

Just a little bit, yeah.

Thank you very much! The regional rebellions were, by and large, put down and faded away in the face of a common enemy. One thing I must remind everyone is that the BBC, and the British Empire, might not be the most reliable narrator of events...

No rules for crossposting! I am just normally very, very slow and some things (for me) are too minor to post here without more backing lore to them (the companies list is a good example, it will be posted with all descriptions). People are free to share whatever from the server!

Looks like Lord Redcliffe-Maud was busy with his pencil. I'm assuming that's why its "Peterborough" and not "Huntingdon", and "York" and not "North Yorkshire"

Also, that is one biiiiiiiiig London.

[Nenshou Yuuki]

So this is a London without a greenbelt I take.

Soon, there will be only London.

That would result in a fun parliament sitting.......

(This is canon, posted it on the TFS discord but have not yet posted it here. Special thanks to Kibbutznik, Tibby, Rausch and others on the discord for checking everything over and giving ideas!)

So....what happened to the east coast of the UK?

So....what happened to the east coast of the UK?

Climate change.

 

[Couperin]

So....what happened to the east coast of the UK?

As shown by the earlier climate map of Europe, the world is about 70 years "ahead" on climate change. This has been...unhelpful for coastlines across the globe.

Are there seawalls in the most vulnerable and densely populated places?

By the way, I'm fairly sure that a while ago I came across a huge ass pseudo-Wikipedia page about TFS' Great Britain, it was a full article I think - was it deleted, because I can't find it anywhere?

You must be mistaken I do not believe that has been made yet

This does not exist, you can confirm that by looking at graphics channel on the discord
