The idea of a British state separate from the NSR, the nation that controlled the majority of the isles, had existed as a conspiracy prior to the NSR's eventual dissolution in September of 2024. It was originally proposed as an idea by maplesen when first joining the server in September 2023, before being informed of the NSR's existence and governance of the isles, which she joined.
Several short-lived plans to revive a British nation were attempted, often through small group discussions or informal plots, none of which came to fruition due to internal disagreements or shifting alliances. In mid-2024, a more structured plan known as Project UK emerged, spearheaded by [[Joigrama]] and a few collaborators. The goal was to establish an independent United Kingdom while maintaining peace with the NSR. Despite complications such as regional unrest and conflict, the plan gained momentum.
 
The idea came up again after the merging of two British Towns, "Britain" (Later London) and "Auresco". The two mayors of the towns, Joigrama and maplesen, brought up the idea as a form of joke during a periodical time of inactivity in the NSR.
Eventually, the collapse of the [[85th Government of the North Sea Republic]] left the isles without central leadership. This power vacuum allowed for the rise of new states, and the United Kingdom finally emerged again as an independent nation.
The first true plot to separate came in the form of a groupchat between Joigrama, maplesen, and Blitey in May of 2024. The three planned to secede from the NSR as England, utilising Blitey's nation at the time under the same name. A groupchat was subsequently formed to discuss a plan going forward; however, the group eventually fell apart due to an unrelated issue that put all three of them on non-speaking terms, hence ending the possibility of an independent England or UK as a whole for the time being.
The second plot formed as a result of the England plan failing and another periodical time of inactivity in the NSR. Several members of the NSR, including Joigrama, maplesen, _wishful, Owry, and Carrot_Cake2022 made a groupchat named "Plan Freaky", discussing the future of the NSR and their grievances with the decreasing quality of governments/nation as a whole. The group originally intended to completely separate from the NSR (which involved a plot to steal all the NSR's gold, with the help of the Hoyenah at the time, EchoOcelot, who felt pressured by increasing criticism about her inactivity as Hoyenah), but eventually the idea of separating morphed into a plan to slowly coup the NSR and modify it into a nation more in their vision. Due to a gradual fall out between all the members (similar to the England plan) this idea also fizzled out around the middle of June 2024, leaving the UK idea once again in the air.
The final plot was a group project by maplesen, Joigrama, bubisen, and fabinostalgia to finally create an independent United Kingdom in late June 2024. The plan, dubbed "Project UK", was mainly organised in a secret channel within the Scotland discord server disguised as a place soley meant for bubisen and fabinostalgia to talk. The plan was to secede from the Republic with towns that were purchased or heavily invested into by one or more Project UK members, and still maintain a friendly relationship with the North Sea Republic. For months careful steps were taken to ensure that the UK could transition smoothly from the NSR, despite several external events complicating things (namely The Troubles and the NSR - Edesse war). Eventually, growing unrelated tensions within the NSR caused it to completely [[85th Government of the North Sea Republic|collapse]], and leaving the state of the isles in limbo. For a short period, England and Scotland existed as independent states.

History

Prior to the Treaty of Union

The United Kingdom began as a small nation on the British Isles, founded by RandovMan in July 2022. It was later sold to the North Sea Republic and subsequently suppressed.

Although the idea of an independent British state persisted quietly throughout NSR rule, it gained traction after the dissolution of the NSR in September 2024. Early discussions had surfaced during the merging of two towns—Britain (later London) and Auresco—led by Joigrama and others. Initially dismissed as a joke, the idea began to take a more serious shape during periods of inactivity in the NSR.

Several short-lived plans to revive a British nation were attempted, often through small group discussions or informal plots, none of which came to fruition due to internal disagreements or shifting alliances. In mid-2024, a more structured plan known as Project UK emerged, spearheaded by Joigrama and a few collaborators. The goal was to establish an independent United Kingdom while maintaining peace with the NSR. Despite complications such as regional unrest and conflict, the plan gained momentum.

Eventually, the collapse of the 85th Government of the North Sea Republic left the isles without central leadership. This power vacuum allowed for the rise of new states, and the United Kingdom finally emerged again as an independent nation.

Treaty of Union

Joigrama and bubisen sign the Treaty of Union.

On September 3rd, 2024, English Prime Minister Joigrama and King bubisen of Scotland came together to sign the Treaty of Union, uniting the two nations and forming the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. maplesen would become the first occupant of the unified throne of Great Britain, and designating the English Parliament as a unified one that would continue its duties over the entirety of the new nation.

The Glorious Revolution

The Glorious Revolution was the deposition of the bubisen regime in February 2025, leading to the rise of the House of Wessex under His Majesty King Tacitvs.

Following King Tacitvs' accession and his acquisition of the capital, this began a sweeping transformation across the United Kingdom. Towns throughout the realm aligned with the new monarchy, and those opposing the shift were bought out. The former Patriarch of the West Indies, King Tacitvs, re-established and revitalised the Christian identity in the British Isles, including commissioning the reconstruction of the EarthMC Church's British diocese, which had long been defunct.

Since the Revolution, the United Kingdom has grown into the dominant power in the British Isles, unifying more territory than at any prior point in its history. London continues to develop as the Kingdom's capital, and a new constitution granted by the Crown has established the nation under a consultative parliamentary system.
