Upside down Britain

I feel like I am the only person that sees Antarctica as the top of the Earth, it is the one continent that contains a small area of land that is moving very slowly as the Earth turns. Antarctica is the only continent that is over the polar part of the earth.  If Antarctica was the top of the world then all the maps would be upside down. My island home of Great Britain would look very different.

I also think that the capital city shouldn't be in the bottom right corner or the island so in my world London would not be the Capital city of Britain. 

The trouble is there is no city in the Centre of the island, it is just a village and some farmland next to the Yourshire Dales, the nearest city would be Sheffield. I would settle for Liverpool, plus it is very close to Wales. I would make Liverpool the capital city of Britain and extend it so it is inside Wales slightly.
