The premise of this scenario is the modern history of Japan annexed by Britain. The historical "what-if" scenario of Japan being ruled by someone other than the Japanese has been a theme I wanted to explore in the context of alternative history science fiction, but it's likely to be a taboo subject in the realm of alternate history fiction. What might be permissible is a scenario based on the original timeline's defeat of Japan in World War II and subsequent occupation and administration by the United States, or perhaps a scenario of divided rule by the US and the Soviet Union. Even in these cases, Japan usually regains its independence in a relatively short period, and it doesn't remain under the rule of other countries or ethnicities for an extended period. In other words, the idea of Japan being ruled by another ethnicity for an extended period is, even in the realm of fiction, close to being a "taboo" in Japanese history. Therefore, in this context, I would like to explore the scenario of Japan being ruled by another country. However, it's too easy to set it during World War II, so we will observe a scenario that becomes more challenging to set up, starting from the original timeline around the late Edo period. I would like to emphasize that our goal is to simulate Japan as a "colony." Well then, let us once again enter the realm of fiction.
