Altered Maps 15

[Joecoolyo]

I was going to try for Belgium.
There would have been hands for everyone!
And it looks that best Greece (FYROM) is taken....

Looks like I will claim Crimea as the noble country of Russkraine or Ukrussia (the citizens of this glorious country are awaiting the results of a referendum)!

I'm sorry, but European nations need somewhere to beat the crap out of each other. Belgium and the Netherlands just so happen to offer the perfect venue.

Every SUNDAY tune in for the greatest show on the continent! We have shells by the millions, tanks by the thousands, and blood for everyone!

 

[Ajidica]

I thought Poland was where Europeans kicked the crap out of each other.
Wait, never mind. Transporting all that stuff to North Africa would get expensive.

(Actually, that reminds me of this one Larry Niven short story, which involved a alien movie producer visiting Earth during WWI and WWII to make large epic movies, and then going bankrupt when we never had another war like those.)

That didn't stop the Italians, British, French and Germans in the 1940s.

 

[Kyriakos]

No, that's our patron and founder, Agios Alexios, who banished the creditors and the conservatives and brought a new age of fiscal socialism to Greece, hallowed be his name!

Life down here is just some strange illusion

[Arakhor]

And there I was thinking that you'd be used to bizarre pseudo-political settings.

 

[Lohrenswald]

Also I'd like to claim Serbia and Romania

thank

Maybe later

Spoiler :

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

The People's Democratic Republic of the Kingdom of Andorrastan, in orange.

 

[Lohrenswald]

I was getting pretty close to just calling it Erandorra

Spoiler :

Lucy is now the last one who has not come up with a name

 

[madviking]

i'll take portugal and name it 'dorkugal'

 

[Lohrenswald]

Spoiler :

There aren't many default colours left, so if anyone has specific wishes for colours, don't be afraid to ask (and I can use those colour codes)

 

[JohannaK]

The Federal Union of Banking Secrets welcomes the Channel Islands of Jersey and Guernsey, and also the Isle of Man, into the Union.

 

[Omega124]

I claim upper and lower normandy, and create the Norwoman Republic. Capital is Caen.

 

[Lohrenswald]

I think this is roughly the region

I gave you the channel Islands for now, since I forgot them previously

But don't go completely willy nilly on claiming owned land just yet

EDIT: Madviking has assigned a capital

 

[JohannaK]

Bah, Man is the most minor anyway.

 

[LucyDuke]

Yeah gimme Poland.

It shall be called quackolithuania. Thank you.

 

[Lohrenswald]

It shall be called quackolithuania. Thank you.

[Takhisis]

Do I get to choose a bit for myself?

 

[Takhisis]

Dibs on my greater Finnic Kingdom!

Finland (former Grand Duchy of, including Viipuri, etc. etc.), Estonia, Livonia, Courland, Karjala (historic province, as well as the subdivision of the Russian Republic known as ‘Kareliya&#8217 all of Lapland and Kvenland south to the river Skellefte (yes, we're in conflict Mr. Lohrenswald, but that's because you betrayed me on fiftychat) and also a general as-of-now unresolved claim over other Finno-ugric peoples such as the Mari.

That's not even a thing

I'm ready for ya m8 1v1

 

[Takhisis]

Not even a thing? [wiki]Kvenland[/wiki] is mentioned in the Norse Sagas so you'll include it!

And if I'm being saddled with the whole of Latvia then I'm protecting Lithuania. They have good music and need to be protected from those advancing Poles.
