** King Henry IX is close to Charles James Fox and other Radicals in Parliament. Naturally, his political enemies nickname him "[[The Adventures of Dr. McNinja|King Radical]]".
* [[Show Within a Show]] - Fiction and art have also taken a different course in this world, and some works are periodically mentioned. Most notable is the "[[Steampunk|Automaton fiction]]" craze of the 1830s-50s period, which effectively replaces ''[[Frankenstein]]'' and the rise of vampire fiction in our timeline. (Vampires in this world are considered as obscure as, say, naga or drow are to the general public in our timeline; golems are much better known than our timeline due to authors using them as a mediaeval stand-in for automata in works set in the past).
* [[Space -Filling Empire]]: Lampshaded. A large colonial empire in Africa is actually called the Space-Filling Empire after its two architects, a Mr. Space and a Mr. Filling.
* [[Steampunk]] - Steam technology has received a boost relative to out timeline, with highly awesome results.
* [[Stuff Blowing Up]] - Most recently, London.
