Indeed, there is a notable circle of us who don't care what the map looks like (well, as long as it isn't overly horrible) as long as the map conveys the point.

I agree whole heartedly. Barring some scribbled out lines, even the simplest map can be interesting here. Some people just don't have the skill, time, or patients to do the suped-upped maps that we see.
No problem, it is nice knowing people, for some reason I always imagined you as DutchSorry about painfully boring you w/ my life story.
I'm a little hesitant to post this, as I've never made a major map seriously before, but this is for a timeline.
This is the end of World War One with different alliance chains.
PoD is Ruthford B. Hayes being assassinated during his time as Ohio governor.
Union Powers:
Britain
Germany
Austria-Hungary
United States
Italy
Portugal
Coalition Powers:
Russia
France
Ottoman Empire
Japan
Greece
Serbia
French and British relations are ruined by Fashoda, and different alliances form.
Russian revolutionaries decide to abandon their country and head south early in the war, they overthrow a weak Persia and make their own nation.
Anything else you find weird I'll gladly explain.

Ay, good thing you did, otherwise I would have a good excuse for a franco screw.
The British won't hold onto Mecca for long and it will end up part of The Persian USSR, like most of the middle east, making a Communist quasi-caliphate. Complete with Islamic Stalin!
How'd you come up with Morocco's border?
I'm making my own WWI map right now as a matter of fact. (I've made about 50 maps, but I haven't posted any of them (outside map games.))
Didn't put a ton of though into African borders minus the one large independant nation but I figured since Europeans were masters of creating random borders (especially in Africa) that I could always say " The Europeans set up the borders for that small independent nation".
What's with the black line running through Arabia and is that a German Korea?
Black line was from the base map, and yes, Germany made sure it got another Asian colony, I also have to make sure each map I have contains something batshit insane but when thought out enough still possible.
The Map is by Helios Ra, it depicts the year 1835 in Eurofed's TL "The United States of the Americas and Oceania."
Eurofed's stated goal for the TL is to recreate as closely as realistically plausible the map of 1984 by that year, without the world being a totalitarian shithole.

The below is a map of Brazil from an idea I had yesterday, which I'm not gonna continue with until I get some of my other works done.
The map shows Brazil and its States and Districts in the present day.
Rather than writing up a long history before the map, anything you want to know about, just ask.
Also, 10,000th post in this thread.

I like it. Nice and simple, good inclusion of the flag and coat of arms. It would be interesting to see how Brazil kicked the Netherlands though.
