Altered Maps VII: Making the World a Better Place

[Arwon]

There's some people in Puerto Rico that want complete independence from the US, so I guess that's why it's Blue.



How can you even survive with your brain at a temperature that low high?

That's what I mean, there's so much more secessionist sentiment in New Caledonia, Ukraine, Puerto Rico etc, than Australia and NZ. Both should be the lowest category.

Groß-Schweiz. You really can't accuse the right wing in Switzerland of modesty:

Watch out, France, Germany, Austria and Italy. Something tells me your people wouldn't really mind...

Spoiler :

Or they'll react swiftly and resolutely:

 

[Karalysia]

If I was a Swiss I would vote for this party and wait for my country to be annexed by nations far superior (with the exception of Italy)

 

[Mad Man]

Or they'll react swiftly and resolutely:

How come Austria and Liechtenstein never get a part of divided Switzerland?

 

[Winner]

They don't carry a big enough stick.

 

[Squonk]

I want independant Retoromania / Gryzonia

 

[Dachs]

Hey, look, it's 523 already! How time flies.

 

[Mathalamus]

what nation is the bluish one controlling istanbul?

 

[Dachs]

That's what's most often referred to as the Kingdom of the Lombards.

lombards? man they got displaced.

 

[Dachs]

Yep.

Also, nobody calls it Istanbul.

 

[Winner]

And it's not Istanbul, unless this AH is crazier than I think.

(EDIT: Crosspost with Dachs.)

 

[Dachs]

Crazy, but not that crazy. Gets crazier though!

Do you have all the maps in one place? You know, in sequence, with descriptions of what happened, who's who, etc.?

 

[Dachs]

Well, I've only gone from 468 to 523 so far. Probably going to stop somewhere in the Viking period. Both of the written-out TL installments are in this thread.

@TheLastOne36: go-go with the Africa map! I started attempting this myself but it was too daunting. Edit: oh, and I hope you'll get well soon.

@Winner: I don't understand the Swiss map. I mean, there's no unifying Swiss ethnicity, language or religion to draw from? Most Gross-Country-X maps are made by encompassing all people with that country that share some property. What's Swiss about those outside territories?

Oh, and a map (Angola 1970).

 

[TheLastOne36]

So Greek Lombardi? That is an interesting mix.

Did the Lombards in this timeline become catholic, or did they become Orthadox?

edit: @Hakim, nice map, i'll bookmark it for the Africa map.

Well, don't look at me, I am as baffled as you are. It's supposed to be how the Swiss People's Party sees the future of the country. I don't know if they're serious about it or it's just a joke. Probably the latter.
