Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the city of London, 1867! This is the heart of the largest empire in the world, with many people and things from every part of it. It’s a city of wealth and manners as well as poverty and decadence. The classes are divided by manner and breeding as oppose to distance and pollution is almost inescapable. Everyone in this city knows those around them and has friends in many places. More importantly though, everyone has a story.

This is but a small part of the ever-changing landscape that is London.
