The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom (UK), was a pre-War nation.

BackgroundEdit

Before the Great War, the United Kingdom was made up of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The UK also controlled many overseas territories. During the post-Divergence years, the UK was the leader of the states in both the Commonwealth of Nations and the European Commonwealth. No details are known about the state of the British Isles after the Great War.

The UK in FalloutEdit

J.E. Sawyer has expressed a desire to make a Fallout game set during the Resource Wars, involving members of the British Armed Forces.

There are several references to the United Kingdom in published Fallout games:

The Declaration of Independence, which declared America's independence from Great Britain, and the Magna Carta, an important document written in England in medieval times (1215), can be found in the National Archives in Fallout 3.
In Fallout MacRae, a Scotsman, appears as an Unarmed combat trainer for the Blades.
In Fallout Loxley speaks with an English accent and seems to be aware of English folk-tales such as Robin Hood, although he is not English himself.
In Fallout 3 Desmond Lockheart and Allistair Tenpenny are both from England.
In the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Dead Money, Dean Domino speaks with a distinct English accent.
Scotch is a type of whisky that originates from Scotland.
There are also several references to Ireland in the Fallout universe including Reilly of Reilly's Rangers, Colin Moriarty, John L. Sullivan, and Patrick the Celt.

A British Boudicca-78/S motorcycle was to be the first vehicle found for use in Van Buren.

Behind the scenesEdit

"Allistair Tenpenny came to the Capital Wasteland from Great Britain to seek his fortune, so that alone tells you that the U.K. was also hit in the war. And if he came to U.S. to succeed, that says a lot about how screwed up Europe must be. So we just allude, a little bit, to the state of the rest of the world. We like to leave a lot to the players' imaginations, and somebody like Tenpenny serves as a catalyst for those thoughts." - Emil Pagliarulo^[1]
