First nation design:

CELTIC LEAGUE

After the crash of the crown in 1902, The Celtic league seized the opportunity of a weak England and complicated European diplomacy to gain independence.

As a federation, the Celtic league has no leader but an assembly of elected officials from the 6 provinces, they meet in Dublin, the capital.
Howard Grubb's work (he had the world's largest known telescope built on Parliament square) and the will of the league make it one of the most scientific nation. The industry is also functioning well and the fast way to America is comming with the construction of the steamer Celtitanic which began in early 1910.

The Celtic League retains old Druidic principles and decides to let the forest grow instead of agriculture. They then became very dependent on the import of food from other European powers.
