This was with Lancashire and North Derbyshire were found in 1972. All 3 nations began to co-ordinate farming, quarrying and food distrabution policies.

Present day
HRH Queen Elizabeth II of the UK/ Elisabeth I of Scarborughshire died in her sleep of natural cause on July the 1st, 2012. Here son Prince Charles Philip Arthur George Windsor was crowned King 3 days later. His popularity is as great as his much missed mother's was.

King Charles's daughter, 22 year old Steffie Mary Charlotte Anne Windsor has said she will become leader of both Scarboroughshire and the PRUK on King Charles's death or abdication and Geoff Hoon's retirement. She had written " the book 7 folded in to 1" in 2009, promoting the political union of the states of Scarboroughshire, the P.R.U.K., Sussex, Wessex, Lancashire, Cornwall, Ayrshire and Buckinghamshire in to a single unitary state called "Nova-Britannia".

Economy
It is agrarian by nature largely dependent on agriculture, fishing, low level granite mining, peat cutting and selling high end beef. Most of the economy is weighted towards agricultural production though there are some industrial aspects to the urban economy but it is nowhere near the capability of nations like Northern France, PRUK, Lancashire or the SER.

As of October 2011, the nation’s unemployment rate is 4.2%.

A growing food processing, brewing, bread, wine making and scrap metal recycling industry is beginning to develop. Up-market organic sugar beet and beef is sold to Sussex, Wessex, North Derbyshire, Denmark, Brittany, Northern France and the PRUK.

Farming
The agricultural produce of the state includes hen’s eggs, feathers, beef, lamb, wool, sheep, dairy products, cattle and tobacco.

Industry
Its industrial output includes hose drawn transportation equipment, steam train parts, hand tools, cut stone, fabricated metal products, chemicals and chalk products. Industry only took off after the 1985 with the free trade agreement with the Irish republic, Denmark, Ayrshire, Lancashire and North Derbyshire. It is mostly focused on the city of York.

Sport
The national sports are cricket and football.
