United Kingdom (United Republics of Britannia)
 * Government: Prince Charles and Camilla are both killed in a bombing in London. An unindentified plane bombs their funeral, killing the Queen and most of her family members. William and his family survives, and he is proclaimed King. A United Commonwealth of Britannia is proclaimed.
 * Politics: Many politics stuff.
 * Parties:
 * Conservatives: A centre-right party which promotes British conservatism and unionism. They are currently competing with the Conservatives with 31%.
 * Labour: A centre-left party which promotes social democracy and democratic socialism. They are currently leading with 33%.
 * Liberal Democrats: A centre-left party which promotes liberalism, progressivism and federalism. They are currently sitting at 10%.
 * British National Socialist Party: A right-wing party which promotes taking the UCB out of the WEF as well as having conservative and populist policies. They are currently sitting at 20%
 * Research: Lots of research.
 * West European Missile Defence Shield: The WEF successfully replicates the USA's plans for the European Defence Shield. April saw the deployment of a land-based early warning radar, as well as ships in the Mediterranean equipped with proven SM-3 interceptors. June saw the creation of a land-based SM-3 interceptor site, in order to expand the defended area against short- and medium-range missile threats. November saw the addition of a more advanced SM-3 interceptor (Block IIA) and a second land-based SM-3 site. This would counter short-, medium- and intermediate-range missile threats.
 * High-proton therapy: High-energy proton beam therapy is a revolutionary form of cancer treatment offering greater precision with fewer side effects. The concept was first described and theorised in 1946, but it took more than 40 years before the first hospital-based proton therapies were brought online and even then, these were limited to low-energy cyclotrons for only a small number of patients. However, the early 21st century saw major progress in the research, development and deployment of high-energy proton beam therapy. By 2015, the USA was home to nearly 20 treatment centres, with many more in countries around the world. The National Health Service (NHS) in the UCB had been sending patients abroad, mostly to the USA, at an average cost of £100,000 per case. The vast majority of these were children. As the number of these operations was increasing rapidly – and with only a single, low-energy proton beam facility available in the country – the British government announced £250 million in funding for two advanced radiotherapy centres, in London and Manchester. These would offer high-energy proton beam therapy to NHS patients in England. Public opinion of this treatment received a major boost in 2016, after the publication of a study in The Lancet, confirming that it was indeed safer than conventional X-ray radiotherapy. Better precision allowed the beams to deposit most of their energy in the final stage of their journey, reducing the risk of damage to tissue surrounding the tumour – thus allowing higher treatment doses with fewer side effects.
 * Analytics:
 * Population: The West European Federation is the 5st-most populous country, with an estimated 233 million inhabitants. Together, this makes it the most densely populated country in Europe.
 * Religion: Forms of Christianity have dominated religious life in what is now the United Commonwealth of Britannia for over 1,400 years. Although a majority of citizens still identify with Christianity in many surveys, regular church attendance has fallen dramatically since the middle of the 20th century, while immigration and demographic change have contributed to the growth of other faiths, most notably Islam. This has led some commentators to variously describe the UK as a multi-faith, secularised, or post-Christian society. A 2018 survey conducted by BSA (British Social Attitudes) on religious affiliation; 58% of respondents indicated 'no religion', while 36% indicated they were Christians, followed by 6% who affiliated with other religions (e.g. Islam, Hinduism, Judaism etc.). Among Christians, adherents to the Church of England constituted 17%, Roman Catholic Church - 8%, other Christians (including Presbyterians, Methodists and other Protestants, as well as Eastern Orthodox) - 17%. Amid other religions, Islam accounted for 4%.
 * Economy: The WEF is a developed country with third largest economy in the world. The UCB has strong economic, cultural, military and political influence and is a nuclear power. The UCB is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. London, the capital, is famous as being the largest centre of finance in the world, along with New York City in the United States.
 * British Armed Forces: The British Armed Forces form the military of the United Republics of Britannia, tasked with defence of the country, its overseas territories and the Crown dependencies; as well as promoting the UCB's wider interests, supporting international peacekeeping efforts, and providing humanitarian aid. They are: the Royal Navy, a blue-water navy with a fleet of 102 commissioned ships; the Royal Marines, a highly specialised amphibious light infantry force; the British Army, the UCB's principal land warfare branch; and the Royal Air Force, a technologically sophisticated air force with a diverse operational fleet consisting of both fixed-wing and rotary aircraft.
 * Naval Service: As of 2018, there are over 240 vessels in service with the various branches of the Naval Service and supporting organisations, including; 102 commissioned ships of the Royal Navy, 51 landing craft of the Royal Marines, 72 auxiliary vessels of Marine Services and 16 auxiliary ships of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary.
 * Royal Air Force:
 * British Army: As of 2018, the regular force is 105,000 strong, backed up by 76,000 in reserves.
 * War in Greenland: The United Republics of Britannia successfully administers a coup in Denmark, admitting them into the West European Federation. However, Greenland resists against the British. Therefore troops are taken to Greenland. Kulusuk and Ammassalik are taken immediately, while paratroopers land in Qaqortoq and Motzfeldt So. With additional support, both cities are taken, and the British Army lands near Nuuk and advances north. Nuuk is bombed repeatedly as the Navy fires artillery into the capital while the Army surrounds the cities. The British expect a surrender from the Greenlandic government.
 * Diplomacy:
