Talk:United Kingdom (The Arrow That Missed)

Hi, interesting premise with the continued existence of Anglo-Saxon England. Just wondering though. On the UK page of your timeline the flag is still the Union Jack (albeit in different colours) and the CoA are completly unchanged. The English 3 Lions are a Plantagenant (sp) coat of arms with no history in Anglo-Saxon times. The Scottish Lion Rampant is also (iirc) a Norman-Scottish emblem (which in your timeline wouldn't exist) How do you account for these changes to the timeline being reflected in unchanged flags/coat of arms? The wyvern or even the nordic raven would be better emblems of the new kingdom (reflecting both Harold's nordic ancestry and the Wessex wyvern would reflect the dominance of the kingdom which formed the nucleus of England in the 8/9th centuries)

Anyway, good luck with the timeline
