In-Game Biography ^{Click to Show}The Council of Five is an unofficial government system within the British Empire established under the reign of Queen-Empress Victoria. While previously Commonwealth Governor Generals were appointed under advisement from London, it became unofficial policy to place Victoria's growing number of grandchildren across the Empire. This was done as a means to both curtail any upstart princes, as well as to foster a greater familial imperial identity. Though they only carry so much power as their individual offices allow, Council of Five Governors work closely with London and the Crown, although some carry their own personal ambitions.

Appointed in 1914 after the death of his father, George's appointment to Camegia was largely the Queen's doing. Still mourning the death of yet another son, Victoria pushed to have George installed to keep him relatively close to Europe. This was both a pragmatic and emotional decision, as George would be one of one of the preferred heirs should the need arise. The prince would find it difficult to manage the affairs of the Saharan colony, particularly after the Fatimist Revolutions saw influx of Spanish and Portuguese refugees. Exacerbating matters was his own son, Edward, who became a source of constant scandal within New Alexandria's elites for his parties and relations. Edward's unofficial exile would weigh heavy on George, and the stresses of helping manage the colony have lead to frequent illness.

• Let No Crisis Go to Waste: When Spain invades Morocco, the British African Authority will take over Moroccan lands bordering it and Carnegia as a buffer.
• Space-Filling Empire: The British African Authority controls much of West Africa, and is shown as being very dysfunctional. No matter what path is taken, it doesn't survive as a single entity, either collapsing into independent nations, or being split up into smaller, more manageable colonies (for the British Conservative path) or commonwealths (for the British Reformist path), with the Reformists even creating some native-ruled subject states.
