Greater Manchester is a county in the North West of England, a hellish chimera made up of the worst parts of Lancashire and Cheshire. Coming into existence on 1st April 1974, it was presumed to be an over-elaborate April Fool’s joke but no, Cheshire and Lancashire under the auspices of the 1972 Local Government Act wanted shut of their own hell holes and thus, Greater Manchester was born. Greater Manchester comprises mainly of towns that were once quite prosperous during the Industrial Revolution but have long since decayed, with state benefits being the chosen career path for the majority of its citizens.

- Greater Manchester is a county in the North West of England, a hellish chimera made up of the worst parts of Lancashire and Cheshire. Coming into existence on 1st April 1974, it was presumed to be an over-elaborate April Fool’s joke but no, Cheshire and Lancashire under the auspices of the 1972 Local Government Act wanted shut of their own hell holes and thus, Greater Manchester was born. Greater Manchester comprises mainly of towns that were once quite prosperous during the Industrial Revolution but have long since decayed, with state benefits being the chosen career path for the majority of its citizens. Future plans for the county include the erection of a 10m wall around the county boundaries. Heavily fortified, the wall will control entry in and out of the county, essentially for the protection of people living in neighboring counties. Residents will have to apply for permission to enter the rest of the country and normal immigration checks will apply. When the Area was created such Lancashire towns such as Bolton,Bury,Wigan,Rochdale and Oldham refused to have anything to do with Manchester. As a result those 5 towns remained part of the county of Lancashire and still have strong culteral links with Lancashire. Salford,Mancheser,Trafford,Tameside and Stockport went off to be fully Greater Manchester.
