| The main protagonists in Terra Fere appear because I have the armies or are willing to paint them. I wanted each nations army to map directly to my collection, with the possibility of the whole national army appearing on table, so the countries needed to be smaller that the historic equivalents.

| - | '' Brittanic Empire'' is a 1890's Britain. It is of course mainly fantasy, however a number of books written during the later quarter of the nineteenth century arguing for a bigger/better army/navy to demonstrate why tehse books arranged the British against each and every foreign power.
