DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, data from the _Gaia_ space telescope has rev
 ealed a rich and complex history of the Milky Way. One particularly moment
 ous event was a merger which formed the 'Gaia Sausage' (also known as Gaia
  Enceladus)\, the debris from a large dwarf galaxy which collided with the
  Milky Way 8-10 Gyr ago.\n\nThe effects of this merger on the Milky Way it
 self are not yet fully understood. In this talk\, I will summarise the res
 ults of a study using the ARTEMIS cosmological simulations of Milky Way-li
 ke galaxies. I will focus on a range of transformations experienced by the
  Milky Way analogues\, including dramatic re-orientations of the galactic 
 discs ('flipping')\, and the disruption of disc stars onto extreme retrogr
 ade orbits ('splashing').
