Excerpt from: Adventures of Asteroid Station Armidale
“Finally!” Robina said.
“We’re there?” Zara asked, putting the dataslate aside.
“Of course we are!”

Excerpt from: The Engineer and the Time Lady
Nina emerged from the console room onto the deck, carrying a rope and paddles. The ship was very close by, she threw the rope and managed to lasso one of the ballista emplacements. She then paddled the TARDIS over, and climbed aboard the ship.
Alpha saw Nina board the ship. She established a transporter lock, just in case.

Excerpt from: Reverse Map Game 2019
Despite British responsibility for the peace treaty (see below), it is the Virginian Government that votes to join the United States.
Florida
The Venetians annex the former Spanish, Portuguese and British colonies into Florida.
Mexico
Sinaloa and West Durango become states by the end of the year.
South America
The repercussions of Spain's defeat begin to be felt immediately.
Africa
Europe
United Kingdom
With it obvious that the Imperial League is losing, Parliament instigates a motion of no confidence in Prime Minister Oswald Mosley. Even the backbenchers in the Imperial Party vote against him. The main reason is the Irish Rebellion. The Rebellion had come as a great shock. Ireland was one of the oldest parts of the United Kingdom, as much a part of Greater Britannia as Pictland, Scotland, Wales, or any part of England.
The next reason is the terms of the peace treaty with Denmark. Referenda in Norway, Norrland, Greenland, Iceland, The Faroes and Shetland, to remain as part of the United Kingdom, or to be annexed to Denmark.
The results were unexpected. Especially in Greenland, Iceland, the Faroes and Norrland, where the electorates voted to join Denmark.
70% DEN – Greenland.
53% DEN – Iceland.
55% DEN – Faroes.
75% GRB – Norway.
72% DEN – Norrland.
80% GRB – Shetland.
There Motion of No Confidence passes. Mosley tries to remain as Prime Minister, but the Imperial Party backbenchers vote overwhelmingly to remove him as Party Leader, and therefore as Prime Minister. However, they vote in the hapless Samuel Beckett IV as Prime Minister. He mishandles the recovery from the war, including the peace treaty with the United States and Venice. Both Virginia and British Florida are ceded as a result.
An election is called later in the year, and the Liberal Democrats trounce the Imperial Party, leading to David Lloyd George becoming the next Prime Minister.
Denmark
The Danes had grown war weary over the years of war. They may have been winning, but their victory would be pyrrhic.
