"Dreadnoughts rumble through the London sky, watchful as sheep-dogs."

"The excited shriek of train-whistles. The hiss of steam. The clamour of countless voices. London."

"You near London, where Her Renewed Majesty reigns from the Throne of Hours."

New London is the capital of the British Empire located in Albion.

The Ultimate Achievement of Victorian Ambition

"Keen-eyed Minsitry Auditors patrol the thoroughfares, while urchins and spies sneak between smokey back-alleys and slums. London thrums with activity, like a great engine in perpetual motion."

The city is in fact the original Category:London, disassembled and rebuilt in the High Wilderness. The parliament used to be part of the city until Her Renewed Majesty decide to separated them from the empire, both metaphorically and physically.
