I know a lot would be in flux due to the fallout of the ice age, but presumably the British Isles would be underwater based on the scenario you posted so the King and his court and the British government would be somewhere in the Americas, right? I ask because I was thinking of doing a Virginia lawyer and fixer among the the first families of the colony/crown.

The return of large-scale glaciers and such would actually create more land around England. Full-scale glaciation or an ice-age in the supposed scale wouldn't flood anything. Basically: [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doggerland]Doggerland[/url] would return. A lot of other coastal areas would dry up too as sea-water is sucked up into the slowly growing ice-pack. Realistically this may happen over a long time, but I think for the purpose of this we'll be overlooking it.

Ice can hold more water in volume than it can displace it, or something like that.

But the premise comes with some fun implications, like in Europe the great city-state of Venice would now be a city on a hill and not a city on an island in the middle of a lagoon. And it'd lose its naval ability and have to learn to be a terrestrial force like Piedmont.
