			TO BE CONFIRMED WITH ISRAELI

			When King Albert V passed away from a heart attack in December 2015, there were two legitimate heirs in position to claim the throne. King PLACEHOLDER was a traditionalist who believed in the divine right of kings and the importance of upholding tradition and stability. He was supported by the conservative establishment, the military, and the wealthy elite who had long benefited from the existing order.

			Prince George III however was a progressive modernist who embraced change and progress, advocating for greater rights and freedoms for the people. He was supported by the younger generation, the working class, and the disenfranchised who had been left behind by the old regime. As tensions escalated and political divisions deepened, the country was split into two factions. King PLACEHOLDER declared himself king of Mercia and set up a capital in London, while Prince George III modernist monarch set up his own rival government in Manchester.

			The civil war that followed was brutal and devastating. Cities were bombed, villages were burned, and families were torn apart by the fighting. The international community watched in horror as one of the world's oldest democracies descended into chaos and bloodshed.

			For years, the war raged on, with no end in sight. The two monarchs refused to back down, each believing that they were the rightful ruler of the country. Meanwhile, ordinary people suffered, caught in the crossfire of a bitter and divisive conflict.

			But eventually, a glimmer of hope emerged. A group of brave rebels from both sides of the conflict came together, united in their belief that there was a better way forward. They called for an end to the war, and for the two monarchs to step down and allow a new era of democracy and freedom to begin.

			At first, the monarchs refused to listen. But as the rebels gained support and the public pressure mounted, they realized that they could no longer cling to power at any cost. In the end, they agreed to a ceasefire and negotiated a peace deal that would allow for free and fair elections.

			And so, after years of bloodshed and suffering, the United Kingdom emerged from the civil war with a new sense of hope and possibility. Though the scars of the conflict would take time to heal, the country was finally on the path towards a brighter future, one where all people would have a voice and a say in the direction of their nation.
