Doctor Who: Mystery in Polonia
Tegan Jovanka wandered through the TARDIS corridors. It had been a while since the ship had landed. While she had enjoyed the time she had spent with the Doctor (and occasionally Turlough) reading in the library, she wanted to get out and about. ‘I can see he has accumulated most of those books on his travels. They are not all from Gallifrey,’ she thought as she came to the Console Room. It was empty. The Doctor was elsewhere in the ship, but she could see the that they were still in flight.
“Where are we headed, then?”

There was no response from the console, not that she expected any.

“Where’s the Doctor?”

There was a beep as if to say ‘none of your business.’

“Have it your way,” she said. She decided to go and find him.


The Doctor was in the kitchen. He was a little annoyed at the TARDIS for just drifting in the vortex. Sure, he liked spending time with Tegan, but he wanted to get out there and make a difference. ‘Besides, the longer I spend in the vortex, the more likely the Time Lords would stick their noses in,’ he thought. “Are you going somewhere, old girl?” he asked. He got the sense that his ship was indeed going somewhere, but was taking her time about it. He sighed. ‘I better check the Console,’ he thought.

As he headed to the Console room, he saw Turlough watching the end of a British movie from the ‘60’s in one of the theatres.


As Tegan left the Console Room, she saw the Doctor come around one of the corners. “There you are!” she chided.

“You were looking for me?” he asked in mock surprise.

“I’m bored. The ship may be huge, but I’d like to be somewhere, even if it may be dangerous.”

“Be careful for what you wish for,” the Doctor said.

Tegan frowned.

“Brave heart, Tegan,” the Doctor said, as he took her hand in a comforting gesture.

She had to admit, holding his hand was calming. “Thanks.”

He led her back to the Console Room.


Turlough entered the Console Room to see that the TARDIS was still in flight, and the Doctor and Tegan standing very close to each other as they both scrutinized the readouts on the Console. That was one thing that was annoying. It made him feel like he was a ‘third wheel’ or something. He cleared his throat and the two stepped away from each other as they noticed them. He saw Tegan blushing as they did so.

“Turlough, how was the movie?” the Doctor asked.

“It was, interesting,” he answered. “We still haven’t landed anywhere, I see.”

“No, we haven’t,” Tegan said.

“The TARDIS is certainly taking it’s time isn’t it?”

“Yes…”

However, at that moment the rotor on the console stopped moving with the usual voorp! voorp! sound. The ship had landed.


Tegan stepped outside first. She saw that the ship had materialized in a mid-sized park in a city somewhere. She knew that it wasn’t on Earth as she could see two moons that were both half the apparent size of Earths’ moon, one nearer to the horizon than the other. ‘One must be larger and further away,’ she thought, remembering something the Doctor had told her about orbital mechanics at some point.

The Doctor and Turlough followed her out. “Polonia,” the Doctor said.

“You recognize it from the moons?” Tegan asked.

“Not only that, but some of the vegetation in this park,” the Doctor answered.

She looked around.

Excerpt from: Doctor Who: Troubles of Ronisaka
The Doctor could see better, and knew with a glace that it was enough light for Clara too, as well as the geishas.


Within a few seconds they were engaged in battle, with the Doctor, Clara and the geishas surrounded by Kamasagi and his cohorts. They had each other’s backs.


Megumi didn’t know what to expect when the two Euro strangers offered to help against Kamasagi and his followers. But so far, they seemed to be as skilful as her and Mariko. She parried a strike from Kamasagi.

“We are taking this place!” he said.

“No,” Megumi said, forcing him back.

“This is but a temporary setback.”

Excerpt from: Doctor Who – Settling
Tegan Jovanka was alone in the console room. It wasn’t easy settling back into travelling with the Doctor and Nyssa again after what happened in Amsterdam. It seemed that her earlier travels in the TARDIS had awakened a thirst for adventure that wasn’t satiated by her job as an air stewardess. She sighed. For some reason she was more exited to see the Doctor than Nyssa.

Excerpt from: Reverse Map Game 2019
It is the Lloyd George Government that maintains the claim upon Iceland and the Faroes (and Katanga see above) given the near parity of the referenda.

Denmark
The Danes had grown war weary over the years of war. They may have been winning, but their victory would be pyrrhic. With the other Allies ready for peace, the government agrees to stop the fighting.
In pursuing the peace treaty with the United Kingdom, the government decides upon the plebiscites, figuring that just taking the Nordic countries would be a recipe for disaster, given that they would then be governing resentful populations.
With the UK Government maintaining claims upon Iceland and the Faroes, they retaliate by claiming a portion of Norway (which had voted more than 50% DEM), and Bermuda.

Netherlands
Forced to cede some border regions and some colonies to Germany.
