Rumors were running rampant through the streets of London. The UK was at war against an united force in the middle east. There were talks of a draft to fill the ranks of the army. There were murmers that the Egyptians were better prepared for the war than our boys. But nothing could prepare the people of England for what they read in the papers... The King was dead.
There was outrage in the streets. People gathered in front of the Parliment in London to try to figure out what was going on. Several hours passed, and nothing happened. Then, someone called out and pointed to a door, where Prince Chris emerged.
"Sons and daughters of the UK, I am sure that many of you have heard about my father. He passed away in his sleep last night, may he rest in peace. As of 9 am this morning, I am the new King of the United Kingdom."
Murmers were heard in the crowd. Not much was known about Prince Chris, exept that he had served in the army and had achieved a respectable rankin, as well as medals for valor.
"The United Kingdom is in great peril. These...these barabarians want to end our colonial dominance! We have heard stories of these people...tearing apart civilians for sport! It is our duty as a nation to rid the world of these barbarian governments who wish to bring only harm to the civilized western world. But to do this, we need to take drastic measures."
People once again began to murmer. Could he be talking about a draft?
"I have heard the rumors of a draft. This will not happen under my government. But, do you know who wants a draft? Parliment. Parliment wants to send the youngest of men, and even women, to the front! Parliment is responsible for lowering the power of the UK in the last few years, and I say we end it. I say we make England a world power again! What say you, my brothers and sisters? What say we unite against the true enemies of the UK!"
With that, the crowd roared. An escort of soldiers led the newly appointed King Chris away, while others entered parliment and arrested every member of it.
The UK is now known as the Empire of Great Britain and is an Absolute Monarchy
