Why “Albion”?

Albion is one of the oldest known names for Great Britain, used for centuries in poetry, literature, and history. It reflects our mission of preserving and celebrating the enduring heritage of the British Isles — a name carried in verse long before it appeared on any map, and one we borrow with the same reverence.
