章節 118: Meanwhile, in the British Empire

July 20th, 884. 

In the early morning hours of a brisk London day, the city awoke to the sounds of bustling commerce and the creaking of wooden carriages rolling across cobblestone streets. It was the dawn of a new era, as the British Empire stood on the cusp of its zenith, poised to leave an indelible mark on the world.

The late nine hundredth century was a time of unprecedented growth and prosperity for the empire. Its roots extended back to the Age of Discovery, when intrepid explorers and merchants set sail for distant shores in search of untold riches and opportunities. As these pioneers established trade routes and settlements, Britain's sphere of influence began to expand, fueled by an insatiable thirst for resources, knowledge, and power.
