The Crowns desire to claim sovereignty over what has now
become known as Doggerland has several obstacles to overcome.
First problem is the vast number of dispossessed Norwegian and
Swedish refugees that have settled in the eastern and northern areas, also
claimed by king Oscar for his people.
Second a vast portion of the land falls into what are
traditionally Norwegian or Danish waters.
Thirdly, a large portion of the territory appears to be a
wasteland of frozen salt marsh swamps in the winter and dried out dustbowls
during the summer.
Forth, a population of short human like creatures seem to
live around the area known as Dogger Hills, they appear quite civilized and
some trading is already occurring between them and the Essex men.
The currently accepted boundary of British Crown holdings is
the Silver River to the east and up as far as the River Tay, then north to the Shetland
hills. The boundary to the south runs along the River Rhine.
Expansion south is certainly an option for consideration as
no central authority has yet to emerge in France, and this is certainly
something the German Empire is aware of.
