Why dois Lithuania have Polasia?

What is that thing above the Caucasus?

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Probably the Kuban Host.

EDIT: Its the flag of the Don Cossacks, so its the Don Host.

 

[TheLastOne36]

If so, fine by me.

I am glad to see the mighty Ottoman Empire lives, though they most likely would have annexed the Caucuses. They had some crazy Caucasian ambition toward the end of the war and all but abaondened their lines in Syria and Iraq to go fight to take Georgia and Azerbaijan.

 

[ParkCungHee]

Yes thats the Don-Kuban Republic.
The Ottomans recieved Armenia as a puppet state and were supposed to recieve Georgia as well, but remaining Bolshevik Resistance, and exhuastion from the Weltkrieg meant the Ottomans were forced to abandon it. With Georgia Lost, so too went Azerbaijan. They were compensated elsewhere with returned suzerainty over Albania and Libya.

The borders of the Don look like it should be slightly further north:

The Borders of the Don got hammered out by how they did in the war with Russia.

That's an odd twist, considering the Armenians initially ran into the arms of the Bolsheviks saying "oh please GOD save us from the Turks!"

The borders of the Don look like it should be slightly further north:

The whole area was controlled by the Whites during most of the Civil War, which included all the Cossack hosts there. The area in Park's map shown as the Don Host, along with much of the Ukraine, was collectively referred to as the Russian Vendee.

Lithuania would be majorly polish-speaking in these scenarios...

Also, it shows nicely why Poland had problems with all of its neighbours.

Yes, but the Germans and Austrian main concern in Eastern Europe is to prevent the Poles from Becoming an effective state, so they gave territory to Lithuania, Ukraine and Ruthenia at the first chance they could.

 

[Squonk]

they could give more: in those scenarios, Chelm region is still polish, while Ukrainians demanded it and actually were promised it by Brest treaty.

I doubt independant Ukraine would agree on belarusian Polesie region or lithuanian Brest, too.

[ParkCungHee]

I'm surprised that none of you picked up on the fact that there are now Two frances.

 

[say1988]

In your map? I assumed an independent Algeria with a more European rule (for a time at least).

National France is based in the former French colonies and Syndicalist France controls the mainland.

 

[RedRalph]

In that situation I would be a British agent.
