History
The United Kingdom has had a prescence on the Antarctic continent since the first colonies inception in the 19th century. From there, their colonies grew to become some of the largest and most densely populated settlements on the Antarctic continent. Under the premise of the British Empire, the various dominions expanded their territory. Thanks to a more enlightened approach to the creation of Eduarda, they have been able to maintain something of an Empire to the present day.
