New Britannia's rapid expansion raised concerns among other global powers, particularly France and Spain. To maintain stability and avert potential conflicts, the Great Powers Accord was signed in 1853, recognizing New Britannia's right to influence over the entire North American continent and establishing it as a self-governing dominion within the British Empire. Spain would sell Cuba and Porto Rico in 1877 and would later sell the Philippines in 1898. New Britannia was quick to pounce on Panama when it split from Colombia in 1903, and the Panama Canal was built to facilitate the passage of cargo between the Atlantic and Pacific in 1904. They would all be integrated as commonwealths. The overseas commonwealths, as well as the CSB which is situated on mainland North America, would see significant economic development and modernisation, but the architects and beneficiaries of this were largely the British elites and their allies in New Britannia. The commonwealths became reliant on British investment and trade, with the majority of their resources and profits flowing back to the empire. The local populations, while benefiting from some economic advancements, were often marginalized and had limited political power. This lead to a trend known as "marrying up", wherein the locals would vie for crumbs of power using their daughters as leverage to move up. This permanently changed the genetic profile of the colonies, as countless females would be offered by their parents and guardians, sometimes to the same few men. In a generation, the offspring of these elites (the creoles as well as those fully European) were a major force in these colonies. Many local families would resort to extreme measures to ensure they had a chance at moving up in colonial society. This included the infamous infanticide against males to such a scale that for instance, in the Commonwealths of Cuba and the Philippines, the local economies and workforces were decimated, with extreme gender imbalances seen amongst the locals, to the point creole males were some of the only males that survived into adulthood. As a response to the wave of infanticide, it would become a capital offence, although few witnesses would cooperate, as most were either sympathetic or afraid of reprisal. With the damage already done, Europeans would begin to flood into the commonwealths to fill the labor void left by the decimation of the local populations. In doing so, New Britannia also found itself with loyal subjects who were more closely aligned with British culture and values, further solidifying its control over the colonies. As far as basic information goes, its capital is Philadelphia.

For instance, 43% of the population in Southern Britannia possesses 25% or more British ancestry, while 32% of the population are Britannians. This grows to 63% and 48% in Cuba, 71% and 52% in Porto Rico. The first number also overlaps with other groups, obviously. Britannians are the predominant ethnic group in New Britannia. They are English-speakers of Northwest European heritage, unsurprisingly most of this is British or Irish with smaller numbers from Scandinavia, Germany, and the Low Countries. They are also known as "Americans." They are present in large numbers just about everywhere in the realm. Acadians are a smaller group of predominantly French speakers, present mainly in Maine, with larger-yet populations in the American South (Cajuns) and Pacific Northwest (Cascadians.) A significant amount of Acadians also came to the South and Pacific Northwest from Italy. There are Italian Acadians, French Acadians, and mixes of the two. 22% are native Italian speakers while 67% are native French speakers, and in areas with a similar climate to France and Italy, you can see a similar romantic and outgoing culture that contrasts with the larger Britannian culture. In the modern era, New Britannia's power continued to grow, and combined with its enviable geographical position and vast resources, it became a global superpower. With a mainland featuring most of North America (Note: really just the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the exclave of Panama), it's the world's largest country by land area, and the Americans are quite proud of this. The total population is estimated around 491 million. Cuisine: Britannian cuisine is heavy in meat and potatoes. Regional variants exist, but this is largely consistent. In Austin, for instance, people may eat Tex-Mex food such as the burrito, with unique twists. Barbecued beef or pork mixed with rice and potatoes are a popular filling. It's not uncommon for someone in the Northeast (Galloway and New England) to eat a hearty breakfast of skirt steak, potatoes, and eggs, including hash browns or potato pancakes. Other than that, the cuisine is diverse and very reminiscent of real-world Americana. Cities in New Britannia are integrated through cross-country as well as local transit. This has created a seamless and efficient transportation system, connecting all corners of the country. High-speed railways, extensive highway networks, and well-developed subway systems are the backbone of New Britannia's transportation infrastructure. New Britannia has a unique system of governance. Citizens over 21 take the Civic Aptitude and Knowledge Exam (CAKE), which is designed to ensure that voters are knowledgeable enough to participate in politics. Voting points are weighted based on exam performance. New Britannians enjoy watching sport. The most popular are rugby union, baseball, and American football. Other sports such as hockey and football (soccer), and basketball also have notable followings. The American Rugby League is the most-watched league, and because the country is so large, there are a whopping 48 professional teams competing at the highest level. This varies with relegation and expansion. Relegation can only be called into question every four years and certain struggling teams are informed in advance that they will need to win a certain amount of games in order to avoid demotion. The ARL also has a draft, and minor leagues. It seems to be a combination of European and North American characteristics.

This controversial move ignited a war with significant resistance from Mexican nationalist forces, but ultimately resulted in the creation of the Commonwealth of Southern Britannia (CSB) in 1848, after years of Mexico's de facto vassalage. New Britannia's rapid expansion raised concerns among other global powers, particularly France and Spain. To maintain stability and avert potential conflicts, the Great Powers Accord was signed in 1853, recognizing New Britannia's right to influence over the entire North American continent and establishing it as a self-governing dominion within the British Empire. Spain contested these claims, and as a result they would sell Cuba andlose Cuba, Porto Rico in 1877 and would later sell(Puerto Rico in Spanish), and the Philippines in 1898.the 1898 Spanish-American War. The addition of the Philippines paved the way for expansion in Southeast Asia - as New Britannia is insulated from Europe, it was less affected by wars in Europe. With several European countries in debt from wars, the country was able to purchase Malaysia and Indonesia in the Lansing Purchase of 1918 (secretary of state Robert Lansing.) New Britannia was quick to pounce on Panama when it split from Colombia in 1903, and the Panama Canal was built to facilitate the passage of cargo between the Atlantic and Pacific in 1904. They would all be integrated as commonwealths. The overseas commonwealths, as well as the CSB which is situated on mainland North America, would see significant economic development and modernisation, but the architects and beneficiaries of this were largely the British elites and their allies in New Britannia. The commonwealths became reliant on British investment and trade, with the majority of their resources and profits flowing back to the empire. The local populations, while benefiting from some economic advancements, were often marginalized and had limited political power. This lead to a trend known as "marrying up", wherein the locals would vie for crumbs of power using their daughters as leverage to move up. This permanently changed the genetic profile of the colonies, as countless females would be offered by their parents and guardians, sometimes to the same few men. In a generation, the offspring of these elites (the creoles as well as those fully European) were a major force in these colonies. Many local families would resort to extreme measures to ensure they had a chance at moving up in colonial society. This included the infamous infanticide against males to such a scale that for instance, in the Commonwealths of Cuba and the Philippines, the local economies and workforces were decimated, with extreme gender imbalances seen amongst the locals, to the point creole males were some of the only males that survived into adulthood. As a response to the wave of infanticide, it would become a capital offence, although few witnesses would cooperate, as most were either sympathetic or afraid of reprisal. With the damage already done, Europeans would begin to flood into the commonwealths to fill the labor void left by the decimation of the local populations. In doing so, New Britannia also found itself with loyal subjects who were more closely aligned with British culture and values, further solidifying its control over the colonies. As far as basic information goes, its capital is Philadelphia. This is part of the state of Galloway (named after Joseph Galloway, a major figure in the passage of the Reconciliation Acts of 1768). Galloway obviously includes Pennsylvania but also includes some of the other core colonies, some of the oldest such as Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, and New York. Other foundational states include New England (MA, CT, RI, VT, NH, ME), the Canadian Maritimes, Ontario, Quebec, and Carolina (NC and SC.). Each state is important, but key newer ones include Austin (Texas, OK, KS, WY, UT, AZ), Dixie (TN, AK, LA, MS, AL, GA, FL), Huron (MI, WI, MN, IA, IL, IN, OH,MS, KY.), Serena (CA, NV, OR, WA), and Montalucio (ID, MT, CO, ND, SD, NE.) 81% of New Britannia is ethnically European, the two largest outside groups being Hispanics and Filipinos, although because of past trends many of these groups do have significant European admixture and can even look indistinguishable from the Britannian majority. In this timeline, slavery was abolished in 1814, so it has fewer Africans, as they account for 2.5% of the population. Additionally, half repatriated to Liberia (Note: In this scenario, Liberia has thrived, and with New Britannian guidance and investment it became comparable to South Africa.) The national currency of New Britannia is the American pound (L). For these reasons, most (let's say colonies to differentiate the CCB and CNB from those that were not predominantly British) colonies have significant European admixture, and though such apartheid systems have officially been abolished, some of British descent still hold significant power, and those of British descent form not only the largest groups in the CCB and CNB where the legend of New Britannia all began, but also in colonies. For instance, 43% of the population in Southern Britannia possesses 25% or more British ancestry, while 32% of the population are Britannians. This grows to 63% and 48% in Cuba, 71% and 52% in Porto Rico. The first number also overlaps with other groups, obviously. Britannians are the predominant ethnic group in New Britannia. They are English-speakers of Northwest European heritage, unsurprisingly most of this is British or Irish with smaller numbers from Scandinavia, Germany, and the Low Countries. They are also known as "Americans." They are present in large numbers just about everywhere in the realm. Acadians are a smaller group of predominantly French speakers, present mainly in Maine, with larger-yet populations in the American South (Cajuns) and Pacific Northwest (Cascadians.) A significant amount of Acadians also came to the South and Pacific Northwest from Italy. There are Italian Acadians, French Acadians, and mixes of the two. 22% are native Italian speakers while 67% are native French speakers, and in areas with a similar climate to France and Italy, you can see a similar romantic and outgoing culture that contrasts with the larger Britannian culture. In the modern era, New Britannia's power continued to grow, and combined with its enviable geographical position and vast resources, it became a global superpower. With a mainland featuring most of North America (Note: really just the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the exclave of Panama), it's the world's largest country by land area, and the Americans are quite proud of this. The total population is estimated around 515 million in the modern era. This ranks third after China and India.

USER: I would like to tell you about a country called New Britannia. In a world where the concerns and interests of the Thirteen Colonies were given considerable weight in British political discourse, New Britannia stood as a shining example of successful colonial governance. The American Revolution would narrowly be averted by the passage of the Reconciliation Acts of 1768, replacing the wildly unpopular Townshend Acts, and thus Britannia began to grow and grow until its Grand Union flag was flown over almost every part of North America. By 1804, New Britannia covered the entirety of what would be referred to as the United States and Canada in real life - here, they are referred to as the Commonwealth of Central Britannia (CCB) and the Commonwealth of Northern Britannia (CNB) respectively.

With a mainland featuring most of North America (Note: really just the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the exclave of Panama), it's the world's largest country by land area, and the Americans are quite proud of this. The total population is estimated around 515 million in the modern era. This ranks third after China and India. It's also a technological powerhouse.

USER: I would like to tell you about a country called New Britannia. In a world where the concerns and interests of the Thirteen Colonies were given considerable weight in British political discourse, New Britannia stood as a shining example of successful colonial governance. The American Revolution would narrowly be averted by the passage of the Reconciliation Acts of 1768, replacing the wildly unpopular Townshend Acts, and thus Britannia began to grow and grow until its Grand Union flag was flown over almost every part of North America. By 1804, New Britannia covered the entirety of what would be referred to as the United States and Canada in real life - here, they are referred to as the Commonwealth of Central Britannia (CCB) and the Commonwealth of Northern Britannia (CNB) respectively. Commonwealths function as autonomous parts of the republic. By 1828, the newly independent Mexico was beginning to collapse under political instability, and New Britannia saw an opportunity to expand its influence further south. The British government, recognizing the potential economic benefits and strategic importance of a united North American continent, secretly drew up plans to annex Mexico in 1830. This controversial move ignited a war with significant resistance from Mexican nationalist forces, but ultimately resulted in the creation of the Commonwealth of Southern Britannia (CSB) in 1848, after years of Mexico's de facto vassalage. New Britannia's rapid expansion raised concerns among other global powers, particularly France and Spain. To maintain stability and avert potential conflicts, the Great Powers Accord was signed in 1853, recognizing New Britannia's right to influence over the entire North American continent and establishing it as a self-governing dominion within the British Empire. Spain contested these claims, and as a result they would lose Cuba, Porto Rico (Puerto Rico in Spanish), and the Philippines in the 1898 Spanish-American War. The addition of the Philippines paved the way for expansion in Southeast Asia - as New Britannia is insulated from Europe, it was less affected by wars in Europe. With several European countries in debt from wars, the country was able to purchase Malaysia and Indonesia in the Lansing Purchase of 1918 (secretary of state Robert Lansing.) New Britannia was quick to pounce on Panama when it split from Colombia in 1903, and the Panama Canal was built to facilitate the passage of cargo between the Atlantic and Pacific in 1904. They would all be integrated as commonwealths. The overseas commonwealths, as well as the CSB which is situated on mainland North America, would see significant economic development and modernisation, but the architects and beneficiaries of this were largely the British elites and their allies in New Britannia. The commonwealths became reliant on British investment and trade, with the majority of their resources and profits flowing back to the empire. The local populations, while benefiting from some economic advancements, were often marginalized and had limited political power. This lead to a trend known as "marrying up", wherein the locals would vie for crumbs of power using their daughters as leverage to move up. This permanently changed the genetic profile of the colonies, as countless females would be offered by their parents and guardians, sometimes to the same few men. In a generation, the offspring of these elites (the creoles as well as those fully European) were a major force in these colonies. Many local families would resort to extreme measures to ensure they had a chance at moving up in colonial society. This included the infamous infanticide against males to such a scale that for instance, in the Commonwealths of Cuba and the Philippines, the local economies and workforces were decimated, with extreme gender imbalances seen amongst the locals, to the point creole males were some of the only males that survived into adulthood. As a response to the wave of infanticide, it would become a capital offence, although few witnesses would cooperate, as most were either sympathetic or afraid of reprisal. With the damage already done, Europeans would begin to flood into the commonwealths to fill the labor void left by the decimation of the local populations. In doing so, New Britannia also found itself with loyal subjects who were more closely aligned with British culture and values, further solidifying its control over the colonies. As far as basic information goes, its capital is Philadelphia. This is part of the state of Galloway (named after Joseph Galloway, a major figure in the passage of the Reconciliation Acts of 1768). Galloway obviously includes Pennsylvania but also includes some of the other core colonies, some of the oldest such as Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, and New York. Other foundational states include New England (MA, CT, RI, VT, NH, ME), the Canadian Maritimes, Ontario, Quebec, and Carolina (NC and SC.). Each state is important, but key newer ones include Austin (Texas, OK, KS, WY, UT, AZ), Dixie (TN, AK, LA, MS, AL, GA, FL), Huron (MI, WI, MN, IA, IL, IN, OH,MS, KY.), Serena (CA, NV, OR, WA), and Montalucio (ID, MT, CO, ND, SD, NE.) Central Britannia, which is pretty much the core of the entire cross-continental country, is predominantly European, and they account for 81% of the population, although Hispanics, Africans, and Filipinos also live in there. However because of past trends many of these groups do have significant European admixture and some with very high admixture can look indistinguishable from Europeans.. In this timeline, slavery was abolished in 1814, so it has fewer Africans, as they account for 2.5% of the population of the CCB. Additionally, half repatriated to Liberia (Note: In this scenario, Liberia has thrived, and with American guidance and investment it became comparable to South Africa.) The national currency of New Britannia is the American pound (L). (Note: It's the same as USD.) For these reasons, most (let's say colonies to differentiate the CCB and CNB from those that were not predominantly British) colonies have significant European admixture, and though such apartheid systems have officially been abolished, some of British descent still hold significant power, and those of British descent form not only the largest groups in the CCB and CNB where the legend of New Britannia all began, but also in some of the colonies, though they may not have a majority share. Britannians are the predominant ethnic group in New Britannia. They are English-speakers of Northwest European heritage, unsurprisingly most of this is British or Irish with smaller numbers from Scandinavia, Germany, and the Low Countries. They are also known as "Americans." They are present in large numbers just about everywhere in the realm. Acadians are a smaller group of predominantly French speakers, present mainly in Maine, with larger-yet populations in the American South (Cajuns) and Pacific Northwest (Cascadians.) A significant amount of Acadians also came to the South and Pacific Northwest from Italy. There are Italian Acadians, French Acadians, and mixes of the two. 22% are native Italian speakers while 67% are native French speakers, and in areas with a similar climate to France and Italy, you can see a similar romantic and outgoing culture that contrasts with the overarching American culture. New Britannians enjoy watching sport. The most popular are rugby union, baseball, and American football. Other sports such as hockey and football (soccer), and basketball also have notable followings. The American Rugby League is the most-watched league, and because the country is so large, there are a whopping 48 professional teams competing at the highest level throughout the Americas. This varies with relegation and expansion. Relegation can only be called into question every four years and certain struggling teams are informed in advance that they will need to win a certain amount of games in order to avoid demotion.The ARL also has a draft, and minor leagues. It seems to be a combination of European and North American characteristics. Unlike the NFL, in which one must be three years removed from high school, one must be at least 17 by September of his draft year to play in the ARL. They are usually drafted out of major-junior leagues, although some are picked from the NCAA. Thus, college rugby is not as relevant as college football.
