• Did British hijack a whole continent?

    From Spalls Hurgenson@21:1/5 to All on Sun May 21 09:03:48 2023
    I know the 'official' story is that Britannia was born from "the Lands
    of Lord British" in Ultima 1... but there's really very little
    similiarity between those two kingdoms. Nor is there any more
    similarity between Sosaria (Ultima 3) and Britannia.

    But Britannia sure does look a lot like "The Lands of the Feudal Lord" (flippped 90 degrees clockwise). It has the L-shape of the main
    continent, and a big island where Buccaneer's Den is. The south (east
    in LotFL) is a bit messy, but nothing that couldn't be explained by
    rising sea levels; the mountainous spur becomes a series of smaller
    islands (later home to Serpents Hold), and the big land mass to the
    northeast breaks apart into the Isle of the Avatar/Spektran/etc.

    Did Lord British - seeing his beloved Sosaria coming apart after the destruction of Exodus - hijack an entire world? And then lie about it
    for eons? And what happened to its original rulers and inhabitants?

    What other crimes has Lord British concealed?

    I see we now have a propagandist from the Serpent Isle in our midst. ;)

    Down with the repressive tyrant Beast British! The people of Moon,
    Monitor, and Fawn will never forget his crimes! Where's a metal plate
    when you need one? ;-)
