Kingdom of Canada

The Kingdom of Canada (Commonly referred to as simply ‘Western Canada’) is a de jure nation comprising the former Canadian provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. It was formed in a historical unification between several dozen smaller entities across all four provinces in 2133 and grew its power and landmass exponentially right into the 2280s when the cracks in the union finally could not bear the weight of the political power struggles, and the country broke into a massive civil war.

Prior to becoming a mere pleasant memory in 2284, the Kingdom of Canada was a regional power with a very impressive ability to throw its weight around, although it did so very sparingly. It was ruled as an absolute monarchy by the Lawrence dynasty, who claim a vague relation to British nobility dating back to what would be considered ‘old’ by pre-war standards. The coronation of a new monarch, Queen Isabelle I, sparked new debates about the complete control of the monarchy, and soon a political rift formed, and when Isabelle attempted to have those pushing for reduced monarch power arrested, an armed conflict began, fuelled by inter-provincial rivalries and perceived imbalances of power.
