===Britannian territories===
The Britannian Empire is concentrated in the Americas. In the novels, its capital is the city of {{nihongo|'''Neo-Wales'''|ネオウェルズ|Neo Veruzu}}<ref name="novel6" />; in the television series, a ___location known as {{nihongo|'''[[Uther Pendragon|Pendragon]]'''|ペンドラゴン|Pendoragon}} is named as an {{nihongo|'''Imperial City'''|帝都|Teito}},<ref name="s2ep12">{{cite episode| title = Love Attack! | series = Code Geass | serieslink = Code Geass | network = [[Mainichi Broadcasting System]] | airdate = 2008-06-29 | season = 2 | number = 12 }}</ref> though it is unknown if this title refers to the capital.<!-- The ___location of the capital has not been stated to be on the East coast. If there is evidence, please provide it. --> The majority of the ruling family resides in the district of the capital known as {{nihongo|'''Saint Darwin Street'''|セントダーウィン通り|Sento Dāuin Dōri}}, through which passage is illegal without the express permission of a member of the Imperial family.<ref name="novel6" /> It is noted for its high security, which is why Lelouch seeks to find the truth behind the assassination of his mother, [[Marianne vi Britannia]]; terrorists, which are assumed to be the culprits, would have been unlikely to penetrate the palace on their own, much less without detection or capture.
The Emperor apparently resides in {{nihongo|'''Britannia Palace'''|ブリタニア宮|Buritania Miya}}, the site of the assassination.<ref name="s1ep7">{{cite episode| title = Attack Cornelia | series = Code Geass | serieslink = Code Geass | network = [[Mainichi Broadcasting System]] | airdate = 2006-11-16 | season = 1 | number = 7 }}</ref> Other residences in Neo-Wales include: {{nihongo|'''Belial Palace'''|ベリアル宮|Beriaru Miya}}, where Nunnally resided in the year between the first and second seasons; {{nihongo|'''Warrick Palace'''|ウォリック宮|Worikku Miya}}<ref name="novel6" />, the home of Clovis' mother, {{nihongo|Gabriella la Britannia|ガブリエッラ・ラ・ブリタニア|Gaburierra ra Buritania}}<ref name="novel4">{{cite book

The E.U. apparently organizes their military into left-wing and right-wing camps, and their forces are drawn from [[National Guard]]-style units from a member nation (i.e. the German National Guard, the Italian National Guard and the Dutch Engineering Corps).
==Australia==
Shown in blue, [[Australia]] is seemingly independent of Britannia, possibly due to the historical divergence causing no English settlers to be sent. However, it could be populated by settlers from the EU Countries or even solely by native [[Australian Aborigines]].<ref name="s2ep2" />
==United State of Japan==
The {{nihongo|United State of Japan|合衆国日本|Gasshūkoku Nippon}} is declared by Zero near the end of the first season. The country rebels against the Britannian Empire following the failed attempt at establishing the Special Administrative Zone of Japan, but is defeated when Lelouch abandons the Black Knights in search of Nunnally.<ref name="novel5" /> Upon their escape to the Chinese Federation Consulate in the second season, Zero once again declares its formation, this time as a room in the consulate.<ref name="s2ep2" /> While Britannia considers it to be non-existent, other countries, the Chinese Federation among them, do recognize it.
After the exile of the Black Knights, the Japanese are granted control of
