Little known part of the Star Trek cannon.
In the great Brexit 2021 riots, Shakespearean actors were expelled from Britain in great numbers, amoung them Jean-Luc's great-great-great-great-grandmother.
They settled in the Loire Valley. Many fell in love with locals and married. But the primary language spoken in blended families was Shakespearean English. As well as Melvillian English. Of course French would also be spoken, and British English, which proved useful when travel restrictions were lifted in 2309, shortly after Jean-Luc's birth.
The United Kingdom joined the Federation in 2319, only to embark on leaving the Federation with the 2361 Brexit 2.0 vote. The negotiations continued through 2399, when the Bremain vote finally settled the issue.
