🌟Because of significant debt created by war, Britain implemented the Stamp Act which American Colonists saw as 'taxation without representation' -a factor leading to American Revolution

#AubreyBeardsley at Tate Britain. Plus #scones, because when there’s decadence, there must also be scones. It’s the law.
@giggsart Bella would be from Britain (she has a british accent, anyways)

Lutea would be in the Caribbean somewhere since anubis is a tropical aquatic plant
And Maple would probably be from Oregon or somewhere forest-y.
