United Kingdom - the 51st state?

Anon recently saw an awesome fanart where the UK became the 51st state of the US. What are the factors behind it - economic collapse? Social unrest? What of the Royal Family? How would England react to losing his sovereignty and having to answer to an American president? Roll with it, anons! This one sounds nice and juicy angsty.

God, if you exist....
But what was the use of praying?
Their eyes met in the same moment, travelling across the icy lawn to meet each other. Alfred lurched forward, his hand stretched out to grab hold of Arthur’s shoulders. His boots crunched against the frost and snow, cold shot up his legs, almost paralysing him.
God, if you exist, please take us somewhere far away.“Arthur

This was heartbreaking, because all this time Alfred thought that Arthur was miserable and hated him (which wasn't true all the time), and he's left with that thought for the rest of his life. Stunning work, anon. I couldn't have asked for a better fill. <3
And the thing I liked best about this whole thing was that I was reading it at work on my phone, and I'm not supposed to have my phone on my at work so I was reading it in bits and pieces. The suspense of it all was fun. :D

I read both of your fills and... I don't ever get teary eyed from things. Movies, games, fics- it's very rare I get emotional enough for it to show. I teared up so bad from your fills. Just... so heartbreaking. Wonderful job, anon.

At the end, I wanted to cry but found no tears...just felt so empty inside. When I read the first story (Arthur's POV), I thought it might be the best result, but when I read this one, I, I, oh, Alfred..I felt so sad for him..sincerely hope he could overcome this. I thought this would be sad, but I did not expected it to be this sad, yet beautiful.
Though I suck at writing let alone translating, may I ask if I could translate the two stories into Chinese? Thank you in advance

O-oh my! I think my eyes just dried! ;A;
Oh, Alfred. Oh, Arthur. It's like the opposite of the revolution. This time "Alfred" [because it's not really him] is forcing Arthur to stay with him, instead of away from him. And the situation just makes they both so miserable! All of this breaks my heart. In zillions of pieces. ;A;
This is such a beautiful fill, author!anon! I can't thank you enough for this. Or praise you enough! <3
When I was reading the part where Al buys the lovebird, my neighbor's lovebird started to sing. It creepied me out a little! Is that a sign or something?
