Firstly Scotland conquered the North and part of the Midlands, then Friesland annexed East Anglia and Kent, then Gelre annexed Wessex, Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire, Tyrone united Ireland and then in the peace deal Wales and Cornwall seem to have been released as sovereign nations.
I so rarely see England do well in this game.
In the France one I just recently kicked off (which is going obscenely well - 1450 something and I own all of France proper, bits of Savoy and the Netherlands... except a one province independent Nevers, and Avignon), Wales not only became independent, but then proceeded to conquer the rest of English territories. As Ireland has formed (something I'd never seen before) and they are Wales' ally, I decided to ally with them as well. When i went for my reconquest on Burgundy who was allied with Scotland, Wales snapped up most of Scotland too! Fascinating variation on the norm... and they've been a fantastic ally too!
Now, I am just sitting out 25 badboy, and hoping that I get a conquest CB or one of those ones where you press claims... preferably on Aragon!
