Deviations From History
- The Battle of Trafalgar is followed by the fictional Battle of Dover, where Napoleon attempts unsuccessfully to invade Great Britain using specially made transports carried by dragons.
- In 1807, Napoleon succeeds in invading Great Britain, and holds England for several months before being driven out of the country at the Battle of Shoeburyness. Historically, Napoleon never managed to invade the British Isles.
- George IV is made "Prince Regent" in 1807, as a result of the war, three years earlier than normal.
