The Wolfenheim Project had many goals. First among them was of course to colonize a new world far from Earth, a clarion call of “here we are” for the betterment of mankind. But it was also always meant to act as a base of operations for Charles. A base his family had no influence or control over. This he also considered to be for the betterment of all mankind. Later events would prove Charles very right indeed.

The fall of the Ottoman Empire caused much chaos in the territories the Allies officially conquered. In the Ottoman heartland though, there would be one final strike that would put the stake in the heart of the Empire. Constantinople, one of the greatest cities on Earth for over a thousand years, conquered only once before in all her history, was humbled by the Allied armies. Even an end to The War would not save her from the aftermath of that in the end.
Modern Alshain has a lot going for it. Warm, sandy beaches on the one hand. Cold, snowy mountains on the other. And low gravity on the other hand. Add in a low population density and it is a vacation hotspot. In my circle of friends, the Alshain Martial College is what we think of. Many consider it the best low-grav training center in the Western Alliance. Which of course has sparked numerous bar brawls with those who don’t. Gotta love school rivalries.
Elizabeth came out of the network many years after the British Commonwealth came back to her feet. She never answered any questions about the student who saved her life, but willingly explained her motivations and plans during the Second Great Depression and the Islamic Jihad. She’s come back every few decades since then to remind the people that she is still watching and protecting the British Isles. She’s sorta like a real life Merlin or Arthur.
After the Arab Revolt, British control in the remains of Palestine was no longer contested. But Palestine was not calm, and the fighting between Arabs and Jews continued. The Jewish Agency’s Haganah and various Arab organizations fought a low-level war throughout the Jewish neighborhoods where British troops did not stray. This little war would continue for decades without resolution, until the next War would change everything.
