The homeland is the US land mass here, so not so unexpected to me.

On top of various earlier alt-history shenanigans* Napoleon succeeded in taking the British Isles in the CG timeline, driving the government to North-America.
*Like a Roman-Era United British Isles (IIRC. Maybe it was Post-Roman since King Arthur is a thing) and the failure of Washington's rebellion. Been a while since I looked at it so I might have something wrong here.

That's why canon Britannia's expansion doesn't make sense. There is also this: Euro-Britannia, which doesn't make a lick of sense considering the original series. Seriously, it's an headache. I may revise everything in the future.
I leave you today with this little premise:
This is Kaguya Sumeragi when 14 years old:
This is how Kaguya Sumeragi will be when 17 years old:
Count the days Lelouch, count the days...
Area 1 would technically be Quebec, and already ready under the Crowns control even before Washingtons failed rebellion
Ignore everything else, but this map probably shows how the Homeland, Area 1, and Area 2 are set up with some degree of accuracy.
Please do so; there shouldn't be such a subordinate of Brittania of all things there.

IIRC, Britannia went to war with the EU after taking Area 11. The EU and China had a treaty with Japan which forced the EU to enter war with Britannia (China didn't commit). This would have led to Britannia taking Siberia, which was then given to Euro-Britannia.
Also, they might have had colonies in the pacific side of Siberia before the series (which may be possible if they went on a colonization binge as they had a coast to the pacific.)
EDIT: AFAIK, they also had their own Great War, in which case they might have taken a chunk of Russia.

For those I mentioned, yeah, but there's other stuff like New Zealand not being an Area that are troublesome.
In the world of Code Geass there were a few historical events that differed, resulting in the geo-political landscape you see in the series. Two of the most important ones are that A) Napoleon succeeded in conquering Europe and B) the American Revolution failed. Due to the first, the British royal family fled to the colonies, which they were able to since the colonies were still theirs, leading to the formation of Britannia.
There isn't necessarily a French Empire, but France may well be larger due to Napoleon winning. (and setting up the structure for the E.U.)

Ah, I was aware of what you posted. I was a bit confused since France was highlighted.
That said, it's difficult to predict what the world would look like with such large butterflies at such volatile periods in history, when borders were constantly being redrawn.
IMO, at least

Yeah, it's just one of the maps I found that kind of made sense regarding how Britannia might have divided up the first couple Areas. It's all speculation, really.
Oh god, I can't believe I missed that one.
*frantically updates files*
How many deaths does it take to make a shadowland? Because Brittania has been at war with basically the entire world for a long time now, so there should be quite a number of them.
The relevant Splats (Core and Abyssals) are vague, really only saying that Shadowlands form in areas of constant and/or significant death.
From the examples, it varies by the size of the Shadowland, the nature of the deaths, and the concentration of death
You could have a Shadowland the size of a small room for instance, if it's been the site of serial murders, but the amount of death, as well as how horrific the deaths were seems to play a part.

Why? Canon Brittania, at the time she started becoming a worldwide empire, was based in North America. Brittania isn't Britain, it's a thinly veiled USA that didn't drop her British heritage.

I like the theme of our nightmares gaining awareness, so it was either this or Nightmares Glanced Through Mind's Eye. In the end, this Charm tree and its effects on the newborn souls when we get further into it (ghostly powers?) appeal to me more.

The look of confused horror on the green haired girl's face as she struggles to escape her silken cocoon is one you are all too familiar with, as is the look in Milly's eyes. "First Kallen, and now a second beautiful girl to dress up the next day! What a spectacular harem you're building for me, Lulu!" You resist the urge to facepalm. "Anyways, madam President, I imagine you'll whip up quite an appetite as you work. Shall I order takeout?" "Splendid idea, minion most faitful! Hmmm... Chinese, KFC, or pizza?" At the mention of pizza the captive's eyes light up excitedly, looking to you pleadingly. Well, she did take a bullet for you, and it wouldn't do to be ungrateful. "Pizza it is, then."

It's worth a shot. It seems terribly mean to subject someone to Milly without even trying this.

...yeah, I think we might want to avoid that, @Peanuckle, @Diller, @veekie
Muse of Unearthly Delights is something I recommend. A soul born from that should be great for crafting and to give assistance with crafting for ourself or others, being a muse.
@Alexander89 - What would Midnight Shadow Scars get us? Something out of a nightmare, I'd imagine, and somewhat deranged at that.
