Overview[]

In this version of the world, the counties of Worcestershire, Herefordshire, the Metropolitan Borough of Dudley and the Metropolitan Borough of Sandwell became disgruntled and declared UDI from the UK in 1995. Part of Wales and Shropshire then joined what would be later known as The Federal Republic of Greater Herefordshire and Worcestershire (AKA- Herefordshire and Worcestershire, The Federation of Mercia-Morgannwg, The Federation of Mercia-Glamorgan, the Anglo-Welsh federation or The Federal Republic) .

It has a chequered multi-political and multi-cultural background that has led to the creation of 9 rival names, 3 rival mottos, 3 rival anthems, 8 rival flags, a rival coats of arms and a rival logo. All are used domestically, but only the official ones (in bold text) are used abroad.
