Albland

- Cumberland (Cumbrish: Cumbry) (brown) — In our world, Cumbric died out and Welsh lived; here, it's the other way round. [Language: Cumbraek.]
- Monkchester (blue) — The privileges of the Haliwerfolc have been much abused over the centuries by coal merchants and slave traders; though Monkchester itself was no slave port (not later on anyway), there is not a building in the city unstained with the trade's blood.
