a Second Miss Space

Formerly the seat of governing power in the United Kingdom, London was largely evacuated once mainland Europe fell to the BETA, the politicians and beaurecrats fleeing across the Atlantic, into Canada and the New England territories of the United States. London's urban sprawl has been heavily fortified, a key defensive position should the English Channel Defense Line fail to hold back the BETA. UN forces gather here as a sort of staging area in support of the Defense Line.
