in april 2017, a report for the european parliament committee on constitutional affairs was published to look at the implications on the uk's withdrawal from the european union on scotland, wales and gibraltar and their future relations with the eu. the report suggested that scotland would be unlikely to be rejected as a member of the eu, should it become independent, noting that "not since de gaulle’s veto on uk membership in the 1960s has a democratic country respecting the rule of law been refused admission". however, it affirmed that scotland's independence would have to be accepted by the united kingdom for scotland to obtain eu membership: "there now seems to be a consensus that, were scotland to become independent by legal means, it could join the [european] union".

other parts of europe also survived the change and prospered. surviving parts of scandinavia formed the nation of norrland and divided western europe with britain along the old german border. parts of ireland besides ulster survived, including the republic of the shannon and, in the north, the republic of ireland (provisional), called "provoland"—a fanatical republican entity. in italy, three nations arose out of the change: venice, sicily and the umbrian league. not much is known of eastern europe, though it has been reported it had a better survival rate than western europe. comments by the author suggest that greek survivors from cyprus become a power in the region, repopulating the fertile egyptian delta and the levantine coasts. russia apparently regressed into a handful of rural kingdoms, including one based around belograd, with the cossacks and tatars thriving.
