Zara is the head of the House of Bamburgh, the junior, Britain-based branch of the House of Windsor. She is the daughter of Anne II of Cleveland and the granddaughter of Elizabeth II. Zara became the queen regnant of Cleveland in 2010 after her mother's abdication, and in 2016 Cleveland joined with the Duchy of Northumberland to form the Kingdom of Northumbria, uniting much of the north of England. In the years since, three other states in the former United Kingdom have made Zara their head of state. She is the central figure in the British reunification movement called the United Kingdoms, as part of which movement she has been acknowledged the Queen of East Ulster, Duke of Lancaster and Duke of Normandy.
Zara is the eldest daughter of Queen Anne II of Cleveland and Mark Phillips. She had an older brother named Peter, who was the eldest grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II. On Doomsday, Zara, then two years old, was with her mother and brother in their estate in rural Gloucestershire. The family were evacuated to a bunker in Bempton, Yorkshire, in the days after the attacks. Peter contracted an illness and died not long after in the chaos and confusion of the aftermath. After some time in Bempton, the emergency government HQ relocated to a site near Middlesbrough; Zara and her mother moved with it. As members of the royal family, their survival was deemed important for the national continuity of the UK.
