Up to this point, I have just read and enjoyed people's work without much commentary. Part of it is being not terribly familiar with the culture nor the terminology of forums.. my God am I finally a dinosaur like I thought my father was 20 years ago? In any event, if this even comes out formatted correctly, it will be in itself a minor miracle.
This is my first AAR, something I've been considering doing for a long time now. I finally bridged the gap between aspiration and implementation thanks in no small part to Sezro's ingenious and hilarious "Subcontinental Subtleties". Of course, I wanted MOAR! Since there was no moar, I decided to make my own. I hope this first AAR meets with your approval. Also, I have not yet obtained HoD (cringe). I hope that it is not too awful... I hope it is entertaining nonetheless.

No cheats, only alteration is the release of Wales from UK
After the extravagant, selfish and gluttonous reign of "Prinny" (note: proper pronunciation requires simultaneous sneer), or George IV as he eventually was known, the people of Wales had had quite enough of absurd fashion, melodramatic inter-generational hissy fits, and reports of missing local children each time Prinny gained a stone (which he did in regular fashion). The rule of his brother William IV and his enormous litter of illegitimate children sprinkled profusely across the country was met with a seething rage of separatism spoken in whispers in Welsh, a language unintelligible to any accustomed to the use of vowels. Owing to a large debt owed to a laudanum dealer in India left to him by Prinny, William had no choice but to borrow the enormous sum from a Welsh businessman of aristocratic stock. The price was hefty, indeed. The very independence of Wales itself!
