Following the lost anti-British War, in 1838 the first English Revolution took place. King Philip was killed. The Revolutionaries declared the British republic. The Royal family under his successor George I fled to New Albion (OTL New Zealand). The pope went with them (including the highest clerics, who soon decided to move with the pope to bigger Antipodia, however). Their strategy backfired: 1841, the Second English revolution. After the defeat of the admiral, Socialist leader and former bartender Charles Pounder took power in London, declared the "People's State of England".
