Pretty much Devo-Max + no Irish reps in Westminster. I tried to model it partially off the OTL Irish Home Rule bills, but ended up making it modern Scotland. C'est la vie.Sounds like Devo-Max, I approve . This looks like it will be good!

I imagine Victoria would be turning in her grave were she to read that!
I think this may be a typo.
Aside from that, you presented the quick sketch I gave you very nicely indeed. I'm interested now to see how your Ireland is set up – and, more importantly, whether they stand a chance in the world. A very good start!
(That said, I must protest very loudly your undignified treatment of Pam – possibly my favourite character of the whole Victorian period.)
I'm very sorry about Palmerston, as I like him as well, but it's always very unfortunate for him when I fire up VII. In one of my test-games for this AAR, the monarchy was overthrown when hundreds of thousands of Jacobins flooded London. Not to mention that his OTL interventionism lends itself well to occasionally disastrous jingoism.
I'm utter shit at playing the UK proper. Just... terrible.How did you manage to overthrow the monarchy so quickly? That's impressively terrible.
