In Pursuit of Imperial Glory

Background:
It is January 1st 1700, the 18th Century has just begun. The English Parliament has gathered for a meeting arranged by King Edward the 3rd. The members are gossiping about what the king could possibly want when King Edward III bursts through the doors and strides over to the speaking podium. A hush falls amongst those present.

"GENTLEMEN! England has sat idly for many a year. But no longer!
I propose a plan that will bring the world under our mighty rule! We shall be the fiercest nation in existence! With our powerful navy we shall dominate the seas! We will build our power at home, while destroying minor nations abroad! With time, we shall take over Europe and desecrate those vile French!

Our first course of action is to wipe out the pirates in the Caribbean, whille spreading our territories in America. We shall also get a foothold in India!

God willing this world shall be ours!"

And with that the parliament burst into applause.

Settings and General Info:

Chapters List:

*Notes: Almost put the new Flag. Would of probably gotten me yelled at by someone.

I'm taking certain historical liberties.
