Brief Description

The British Fascist Union is an alternative history-based nation, set in the Modern Tech world of NationStates. In this alternative timeline, the British Union of Fascists won the 1935 General Election and consequently, with Oswald Mosley as Prime Minister, signed a Non-Aggression Pact with the Third Reich, so the newly-formed British Fascist Union never entered the Second World War and remained neutral.

Historical Background

The history of the British Isles is long and varied, so this article will focus primarily on the events post-1935, where the timeline alternates from Real World history.

The 1930s was a time that saw the uprising of Fascism across Europe. In 1933, Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of Germany at the head of the National Socialist German Workers Party and quickly began turning Germany into a One-Party Dictatorship.
