>As Boru had four sons (in this timeline), this causes a civil war, between Brian's elder, incompetent son (supported by a clever advisor from the aristocracy) and his younger charismatic brother, who was actually appointed as heir, backed by the other two of his siblings with troops in Alba
>Edmund Ironside uses this as an opportunity to invade Sodor in favour of the elder son, which is then exploited by Canute to invade England (which makes that war even worse)
>Canute takes over all of England, but is then faced with the Scotsmen, whom he defeats in a costly battle
>The Sodorians of the younger brother defeat and capture his elder and Edmund at Barrow, but lose their king in the process, which is then part of Sodorian folk legend
>The new king of Ireland, Sodor and Alba, let's call him Brian III., is his infant son, the compromise between the Irish and Sodorian is, that the nameless advisor will take regency with his uncles
>In the meantime, the alliance between the Irish Sea Kingdom and the North Sea Kingdom is sealed by a marriage
>This leads to the fact that everytime that Danish rule in England is threatened, the Sodorians intervene, which renders Danish rule longer and prevents Norman and Angevine rule
>This then leads into obscurity, as the butterfly effect spreads ist wings
>There never is a Magna Charta, no English Civil War, no Glorious Revolution
>England never has any colonies
>England is still an industrial center, but under Danish rule, which makes the Danes invade and subjugate Sodor as nationalism replaces feudal allegiances
>Sodor is anglicised in turn, as is Ulster
>Fast forward
>In the hopes of gaining Independence, the Sodorians secretly develop trains for transport troops and employ Prussian/Austrian Military attachées
>During the Danish-German War, the Sodorians lead a campaign straight to York, boot the Danes and found the UK
>Sodorians currently explore America, but a Shaman's curse captured the souls of dead Sodorians in their trains
