    The date was August 10, in the year 2010 of the Imperial Calendar. The Holy Britannian Empire had just declared war upon South Africa. The young Kingdom had held fast to its neutrality during the tri-polar Cold War between the United States, Communist Europe, and Britannia. However rights to South Africa’s Sakuradite mines became a hotly disputed issue straining the already deep rooted diplomatic tensions between the two sides. In the deciding battle for the nation, Britannian forces introduced into combat the Humanoid Autonomous Armored Knight, also known as the Knightmare Frame. The enemy's forces were greater than anticipated and the Knightmares obliterated the South African line of defense in countryside with little effort. South Africa became a dominion of the Empire. The country was stripped of it’s freedom, it’s rights and it’s name; Area 11. The defeated and once proud nation of South Africa was rechristened with a mere number.


“I swear...I swear Edward so help me, I will one day, obliterate Britannia!”


    Division. Division is the song of this earth, divided Kingdoms, Nations, and Families. The three alliances are fighting for different reasons, for different goals for the world. The Britannians seek a world dominated from Pendragon, under the guidance of the (god)Emperor. The Coalition of Freedom seeks to end tyranny across the world, and expand it’s empire of Liberty, by force if necessary. In Berlin, the Communists reign across most of Europe and after the Entente defeat rule over Moscow and North Paris. Turkestan broke off from Russia when it was clear the Russians were gonna lose and South Africa is one of the longest living democracies, apart from the US, in the world.


    The Holy Britannian Empire is a nation of deep history, some of it true and other revisionist. After the Tudor victory in the war of the roses, a strong line of rulers followed, Edward VI established himself as a strong ruler and helped cement Britain as Federal Monarchy with King being the supreme ruler of Parliament and Nation. England expanded across the British isles and the failure of the radical republicans during the English civil war only helped in creating underground tension between Liberals and Monarchists. The many people soon left to Americas to establish their own kingdoms and nations, though loyal to England but loosely. Soon after a war between the French and British victorious, the British were in debt as a result of overspending. In order to pay back, the British enforced high taxes upon the citizens, leading to unrest. This further unraveled when the British began imposing rule over the colonies by deposing democratically elected governors. Leading to the American Revolution, Washington’s Revolt, or the Northern Betrayal. Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Quebec, New Jersey, Vermont, New York, New Hampshire, and Nova Scotia. The thirteen colonies, united by a common cause of revolution broke off Britain in a long war, aided of course by the French.


    The US became the lone Republic across the world, and after the War was given the Ohio Territory and Rupert’s Land to expand its Manifest Destiny. However one issue was to remain, the colonies to the south. North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia remained, as strong supporters of the King. However the politics would soon come to turn. In Europe, France burned under the fire of revolution, the King was beheaded and established a bloody Republic. However France was not the only one who see their King deposed. During the chaos, the American Revolution inspired a radical protestant type within Britain. The King fled to the southern colonies and the monarchy lived on. Although the French Republic collapsed after the death of Napoleon and the United Kingdom of Iberia, Austria, Prussia, and the Russians defeated the French at the Battle of Paris. The Kingdom was re-established, and the King returned. However in the Commonwealth of Britain, the failed Habsburg invasion left the Commonwealth an isolated state, though prosperous state.


    When the King died in exile, his son John Tudor, established a new Empire, the Holy Britannian Empire, changing his dynastic name to John Tu Britannia. Under his leadership, Southern America, now Britannia, became an industrial powerhouse, rivaling its Northern neighbor. Competition for the Americas was a deep conflict between the US and Britannians. The Britannians, at the time Southern America, went to war over French Louisiana before the French attempted to sell it to the Americans. The War of Bloody Borders ended with the United States taking everything North of Arkansas, with the Britannians in control of New Orleans. After the declaration of the Empire, the Britannians went to war against the Iberians. The Long War, was a period in which the Britannians were not given more territory in Caribbean by the Spanish leading to an extended conflict. Only later did the Americans join after a period of political and economic unrest slowed down the nation. The US in exchange of a forced peace gained California, Utah, Patagonia and Hispaniola. After the war, the Britannians had a new goal, to pacify the new territories. Like the US, the Britannians attempted to push the natives off their land, however the contrast to the Americans was the mass enslavement of the inhabitants. “Areas” were the creation of the Emperor, who believed that renaming the territories would cement in the mind of it’s serfs, slaves and servants their place.


    As tensions burned across the Europe and the Americas, alliances were forged. The US, Germany, Austro-Hungary, Italy, Iberia, Japan, and the Ottoman Empire united as the Central Powers. In contrast, the Britannia, the Commonwealth, the French Republic, China, Russia, Belgium, the Netherlands, and the Swedish Empire formed the Entente soon to become the Allies. The Great War, when it occurred, burned across the world and the Central Powers victorious though bitter sweet. Germany collapsed and transformed into a Communist state, with its old colonies breaking off into their own state, Mittelafrika. Britannia retreated into isolation, the Russian civil war ended with the ascension of General Vladimir Lenin as the leader of the White Army and declared the new Russian Empire. When he died, Alexander Petrov took over as the Vozd of a new Empire. The French rallied behind a man who claimed to be Napoleon’s descendent and the British, under Lord-Protector Oswald Mosley aligned themselves with their old allies.  The Second Great War played like the first one but even more bloody. Russia, France, and Britain were split between the Central Powers. Although China was a member of the Central Powers with Japan, their dispute in Manchuria led to the Chinese aligning with the Britannians, same with Mittelafrika. The three world powers now compete against each other in the “Silent War,” and Britannia has set its sight on South Africa’s Sakuradite mines.


    The Coalition for Liberty, led by a Catholic United States, with Italy and Iberia has set its sight for Europe in its plan war to liberate Europe from the Communists. The US is a powerhouse and has colonized parts of the world. In Siberia, many Russians fled when the US came in, and the US in turn annexed it into its “Empire of Liberty.” America despises Britannia, for many reasons, it’s Social Darwinist philosophy, Neo-Paganism, liberal stances on sexuality, including polygamy. Italy and Iberia are constitutional monarchies and are America’s closest allies. India was once split up between Spain, France, and Britain, and thanks to American occupation has become a thriving Republic, if not corrupt. The Greater French Republic is an American construction, who didn’t care about the numbers of Republics France went through. Instead, they created what the Americans considered this form “Greatest Republic of Western Europe.” Although this is more for exaggeration, rather than a sign of any real progress. Japan is considered the black sheep of the Coalition, a military dictatorship that gives lip service to Constitutionalism and Liberty and is in fact planning an invasion of China.

    Central and Northern Europe are in the firm control of the Communists. The Federated Socialist Republics of Europia was founded after the German Communist revolution in 1917. The revolution spread into Austro-Hungary and the two states united forming the Federation. They joined the Central Powers after the Allies invaded and beat them back, and annexed and broke up their lands. Establishing Communist satellites in the Caucasus, North France, and England, and the Middle East. Toward the North, the Swedish Empire aligned themselves with the Russians and was occupied by the Federation and the Danish Socialist State. In the aftermath, the Nordic People’s Union was formed. The Ottomans was a member of the Central Powers however after the Second Great War, a civil war raged from within and the Communists won, although Constantinople and the coast were occupied by Italy. Most of Communist bloc is impoverished and poor, with the richest of each society ruling from their respective Capitals although that is relative.


    Britannian society is highly regimented, with a strict class structure. Social Darwinism is the ruling ideal of the Holy Britannian Empire. This applies to all groups, including women, leading to both men and women fighting in the military. Homosexuality, and Bisexuality are tolerated however polygamy is the most preferred system of marriage especially within colonies. Slavery is used not just as an economic system for public projects, but also as a political and social status to define those below. Even the lowest born Britannian enjoys a greater living standard than the average slave. Britannia also uses knightly heraldry as apart of their nationalist image, and competition for the throne is common amongst the Princes and Princesses. At its heart is the Emperor, the all powerful ruler of the Empire, who is revered as a god. In China, the old Imperial system remains, and peasants are used as the backbone of it’s industrial society. In Mittelafrika the German Kaiser lives, and was originally more liberal than most of the Anglo-Sino Alliance. Recently though, the government has become much more Autocratic.

    South Africa, is the lone star of Africa, a Constitutional Monarchy like Italy and Iberia, however has stayed neutral in the affairs of the world. Recently a massive strain of Sakuradite was found in it’s mountains. This makes them a target for the three powers, now the issue is who will declare war.


    Thanks to Sakuradite technology, the world has advanced both domestically and military. However the dependence of Sakuradite has led to diplomatic conflict and the nations that has the large pockets are benefiting greatly if only temporarily.

2018 atb
    As tv’s flared about a terrorist bombing in Johannesburg, two young men walked into a chess match between a servant and a Nobleman. “Oh thank heaven I’m saved!” cried the servant, “are things going well at school?” “What have we here, schoolboys?” said the Noble, in a prideful mocking tone. “Well look at this a Nobleman.” Said one of the Britannian boys, mocking him right back. “I envy you kids, you have so much time on your hands, time for regrets. What’s your name?” “Jake….Featherston.”
