  • World Monarchist League (1983: Doomsday)
rdfs:comment
  • The predecessor to the League was the Monarchist League, a British organization founded in 1943. Originally founded as a semi-chivalric body, it morphed into a pressure and support group over the following decades. By 1983, it had become the largest of such groups, though it had been somewhat dormant for a couple of years. Still, it published its own magazine, "The Monarchist," as often as possible, normally more than once a year. Members, even during the dormant period, still engaged in public debates on behalf of the League. For many years a large youth wing was maintained.

abstract
  • The predecessor to the League was the Monarchist League, a British organization founded in 1943. Originally founded as a semi-chivalric body, it morphed into a pressure and support group over the following decades. By 1983, it had become the largest of such groups, though it had been somewhat dormant for a couple of years. Still, it published its own magazine, "The Monarchist," as often as possible, normally more than once a year. Members, even during the dormant period, still engaged in public debates on behalf of the League. For many years a large youth wing was maintained. But, when the bombs hit on Doomsday, the League was effectively snuffed out of existence - it, and its members, were based in central London. While several branches initially survived, and a few affiliated groups in other nations managed to weather the blasts to some degree, the Monarchist League died in the flames.
