Soon after he was voted out of office, and most of the Ingsoc government's programs were reversed. O'Brien was unable to maintain power, and conceded to the Conservative Party's demands to be reinstated as an official party. After Wharton's death in 1952, he was succeeded by Gerald O'Brien.

Under Wharton's Ingsoc government, cameras monitored citizens' daily activities, torture of dissidents was widespread, and a reduced and simplified version of English known as Newspeak was made the official language of the state. After the war, General Sir Harold Wharton, an agent implanted by rogue factions of MI5 into the Labour Party, took power and turned the United Kingdom into a fascist dictatorship. The nation went on to fight in World War I and against the Germany of Adenoid Hynkel in World War II. In the late 1890s the United Kingdom was attacked by Martian invaders, who were defeated via germ warfare. The group disbanded when Prospero returned to the Blazing World, but was succeeded by similar groups in the 1740s, early 19th century, 1890s, early 20th century, and a failed group in the 1950s. Beginning in 1610, Prospero, by order of a decree written by Gloriana before her death, began to assemble the first 'League' of extraordinary individuals to defend Britain.

Her court held such notables as Johannes Suttle, Edward Face, Sir Jack Wilton, and Sir Basildon Bond (ancestor to Campion and James Bond). Under her rule, magical and otherworldly forces became more popular in Britain. From this union sprang Queen Gloriana the First, who reigned from 1558 to 1603. The faerie remained a powerful force in Britain, so much so that King Henry VIII took the second cousin of King Oberon of the Faerie, the polydactyl Faery-blooded Anne Boleyn, as his wife. Britain descended into barbarism and anarchy, plagued by ogres, giants, and faeries ruled by Arthur's half-sister Morgana. Circa 450, his son Arturus became king, ruling until 468. In 410 the Romans withdrew, and Uther Pendragon rose to power. In 363, the year of Merlin's birth, the Emperor Julian declares Britain a pagan nation.

He is accompanied by the ageless and gender swapping Orlando, who aids Brutus in subduing Brutain's population of savage giants and their chieftain, Gogmagog.
