In-Game Description
Throughout the long and storied history of the British Isles, it has been frequently sang by millions across the globe that Britannia ruled the waves. And yet it was not until she was conquered that a sailor was selected to rule over her. But Sir Barry Edward Domvile is no great hero of the waves, nor a conqueror of fair waves like his ancestors were. No, in fact, Domvile is perhaps the most hated man on the British Isles; a traitor of the highest order, and the captain at the helm of nothing more than a shackled Kingdom.
Born in 1878 to Admiral Sir Compton Domvile, he followed in his father's footsteps and joined the navy in 1892, commanding ships during the First World War and being further promoted afterwards to serve in a variety of different offices, including Director of Naval Intelligence. But Domvile's true purpose came with his infatuation with the far-right, which would begin after being impressed with the Nazi government he was invited to the Nuremberg Rally as a guest of Joachim von Ribbentrop, joining numerous Anglo-German organisations soon after. At the outbreak of war, Domvile spoke of the need for "a bloody revolution", leading to his internment in 1940.
Yet the 'revolution' would come with foreign arms, as Wehrmacht soldiers stormed the British beaches. While being overlooked by the Lloyd-George government, he would be placed in key governmental positions in the subsequent ministries, becoming something of a titan of the British People's Party's establishment. Following Chesterton's failures and the upswing in resistance activity, Domvile's good standing with almost all factions in government made him the natural selection to be Prime Minister.
Now, after 6 years of steering the ship through dangerous waters, the consensus seems to be that he has done a better job than most could in his position. The economy seems to be steadily growing, the nation seems to grow more and more unified by the day, and the ghosts of the past grow ever dimmer. And as for the resistance, Domvile's methods seems to have worked - after all, their activity has dramatically declined since the 1950's. Perhaps this is the beginning of a new age.
"Or perhaps this is just the calm before the storm..."
