How will this all affect British colonization of the Americas?Thanks. Yeah Britain will directly take part in ATL 30 years war analogue.
This one leaves out Ireland though, and from what I understand, Ireland is supposed to be an equal part of this Great Britain, which would be reflected in the flagAwesome start dude and I'm really lookibg forward to my favourite era of british history being turned on its head. One thing though, I don't like the flag you've proposed, I think you're better off using the interregnum flag. Remember Wales is part of England and has been seen as such up until the very recent devolution in the UK.
well more equal than otl with the gaelic nobility not decimated (so far) but still not equal, you could have the irish harp or a cross pattee for st patrickThis one leaves out Ireland though, and from what I understand, Ireland is supposed to be an equal part of this Great Britain, which would be reflected in the flag
thank you!huh just found this now more outstanding work good sir!
more conflict with other colonial powers is a givenHow will this all affect British colonization of the Americas?
Actually James I was very favorable to Wales, and did include the Welsh cross and dragon in his early attempt at a union flag. So it wouldn't really go amiss.Awesome start dude and I'm really lookibg forward to my favourite era of british history being turned on its head.

Really? Sorry I never knew, can you link me a source on that if its not too much trouble?Actually James I was very favorable to Wales, and did include the Welsh cross and dragon in his early attempt at a union flag. So it wouldn't really go amiss.
James I: Scotland's English King mentions how James I was found of Welshmen due to their similarities to the Scottish Gaelic lords.Really? Sorry I never knew, can you link me a source on that if its not too much trouble?
I like it. Nice to see a Union of thr Church of Britain, it will help further seal the future political Union.Thoughts?
Ireland going protestant isn't really happening though a large minority can be made through evangelizing measures at this point. I was more looking towards a proto-Quebec Act for Ireland.I like it. Nice to see a Union of thr Church of Britain, it will help further seal the future political Union.
Also I’m wondering how Britain can make Ireland Protestant, basically make the whole thing like Northern Ireland because the York Confession’s views on Catholics aren’t gonna get them any points there.
Ahh yes. A Quebec style tolerance will definitely make the Irish happy and relatively loyal. That sounds good.Ireland going protestant isn't really happening though a large minority can be made through evangelizing measures at this point. I was more looking towards a proto-Quebec Act for Ireland.
yeah it would be a good idea but actually having something like that come around is the hard part.Ahh yes. A Quebec style tolerance will definitely make the Irish happy and relatively loyal. That sounds good.
yeah Anne won't like the Swedish match. The Gottorp match is a contingency. They are 1st cousins through Frederick II, however 1st cousin marriages, whilst going out of favor, was still used during this time.I’m looking forward to seeing who Henry Frederick ends up with! As a Dane, I must agree with Queen Anne that I am loath to see a Swedish match disturb the British-Danish relations, but Maria Eleonora wasn’t exactly a stable person either from what I gather. The Gottorp match is interesting. Henry Frederick and her would be first cousins, but it would be a decent match. Gottorp also hadn’t evolved into the Danish ulcer it would later become at this point.
I'm not sure he was very fond of Gaelic speakers considering he played a big role in that whole culture's destruction with the establishment of the statutes of IonaJames I: Scotland's English King mentions how James I was found of Welshmen due to their similarities to the Scottish Gaelic lords.
The survival of the native Irish nobility will have huge ramifications since one of the main driving factors behind Irish discontent with the union is the fact that they were relegated to a second class citizen status in their own country with the anglo-scottish protestant ascendancy.that said, not everyone will like the union which seems likely ittl. The Highlander Lords will certainly not like it in Scotland and neither will a good Englishmen.
On the Irish situation, i intend to make sure that the Gaelic Lords, well at least a good amount of them, survive ittl in Ireland. Which will have interesting butterflies.
