Capítulo 1144: Chapter 861: Total War

On April 14th, 1936, under the witness of Prime Minister Baldwin, the Duke of York, the Duke of Gloucester, and the Duke of Kent, His Majesty King Edward VIII of Britain signed the abdication document to be sent to the governments of the self-governing dominions, officially announcing that he would abdicate from the throne of the United Kingdom.

On April 15th, Edward VIII, for the last time as King of Britain, read the "Abdication Act" to all British people via a national broadcast, and said emotionally at the end, "I have found it impossible to carry the heavy burden of responsibility and to discharge my duties as King as I would wish to do without the help and support of the woman I love.

"For the subsequent development of the British Empire, and for my love as well, I voluntarily renounce the throne of the United Kingdom, and my descendants will also lose the right of succession to it."
