My last name is Creedon, which is Cornish for "Of the king"

The country this takes place in is called the "Creedon Republic"

It is on a fictional subcontinent called Creedonia.

I thought you were talking about your prequel to Titanic story that takes place in England.

A majority of it does not take place in England. Mainly, it takes place in Philadelphia,New York, and Piermont,NY.

I have two stories going on. The prequel, and the Creedon Republic.
