Yes.
It still is to an extent, as Jharkand shows. I simply did this since Irfan Habib, a historian I trust on this subject, indicated Gondwana as this. He also indicated Mughal subahs, but unfortunately his map is in a different projection than my basemap, and it was hard enough adjusting the map as is for the projection and the current time period.
Needs smaller Russia
Post-Soviet Nations in my Velikorossia Unverse (where Bolshevik national politics goes a little different, lead to RSFSR collapsed in 1936).
some notes:
1. Königsberg goes to Poland after WWII, not to USSR. But USSR took Polish sities of Helmno, Belostok and Przemysl.
2. Moldova was reunited vith Romania in 1992, during the bloodycollapse of the Soviet Union
3. Crimea is mostly Tatar.
4. Mari El is partly-recognized state
5. There was no CIS or other post-soviet nations associations.

I liked it better the first time.

Take a week off, and don’t try to pass off others’ work as your own next time.
They'd have to build the potato warehouses or the public pools somewhere.

Cold War between Great Perm, the Central African Empire, and West Florida, while the regional powers of Tuva, Kalmykia, the Boer states, Oman, Pergamon, Pontus, and Thailand battle it out in the middle.
The map doesn't look too bad, but it really needs a scale, and while the concept is good, you don't seem to have a particularly good grip on the issues behind the sectarian divide. The Unionists still see themselves as British - the biggest difference between them and the migrants is that the migrants would probably be more secular, and non-sectarian and would want to vote for mainland parties. Most Unionists in South and West NI would not consider "Becoming" Nationalist, in the same way indian people don't wake up and decide to become Pakistanis.This is very loosely based on recent rumors about Northern Ireland potentially remaining within the EEA or even EU while the rest of Britain exits (sadly the DUP isn't on board atm). Once that agreement is reached, the following things happen over the next 20 years:
-Many banks and businesses move from London or other cities on the island of Britain to Belfast and its suburbs (Antrim, Bangor, etc).
-There's a large wave of emigration from Britain proper to Northern Ireland associated with these businesses. 80-90% of the migrants holding British passports are Remainers. About 15% of the migrants are from elsewhere in the EU, particularly Poland.
-Northern Ireland sees Sunbelt-like population growth of 3-5% per year initially, tapering off after about 10 years but equating to a 50-60% increase in the resident population over 2019.
-Many of the British migrants do not embrace or take sides in the national divide, instead identifying as European. At the same time, Northern Irish identity increases significantly, particularly in sought-after coastal towns and scenic rural areas that are either too affluent to care about sectarianism or associate being "British" with gentrification.
-By 2039, the 'national identity' map of Norn Iron looks like this:
Nonsectarian identifies (in yellow) such as "Northern Irish" or "European" have grown substantially. A plurality of people in four districts (yellow) identify in a nonsectarian fashion.
The large-scale influx from mainland Britain has resulted in a significant increase in "British" identity (blue) in Belfast and its surrounding areas, but most of the "New British" are secular and apathetic to the region's divide, instead being lured to Northern Ireland by job opportunities (often in finance).
Nationalists/"Irish" (green) have continued to grow in population in the south and west as they had in prior censuses, partly due to a growing Roman Catholic population but partly also due to former unionists becoming disaffected with the influx of mainlanders turning Belfast into "Little London".
I believe I can help you with that. Just give me a few hours to finish solving today's IRL issues.

Indeed. Ideally, Switzerland should extend from Lisbon to the Urals and from Svalbard to Malta.
I would link the Official Pictures of Gorgeous Women thread, but I don't want to give that thing traffic.
I did a Swisswank. I whipped this up in about fifteen minutes, so please excuse any errors. Obviously, this is ASB, so don't think too much about it.
Everytime I see Belarus in an über Russia I get a little sadder.My current work-in-progress
As you can see it's a modest Russian Federation wank. The map is mostly finished, though I still have to write small TL, description, do legend, etc. Hopefully I'll finish it tomorrow
Not meaning to criticise or be negative, I just think it's funny that even in a Swiss world wank the only country that survives is the US analogue, and even that US analogue is wanked.
There's nothing wrong with Americawanks but I swear to god, even supposed America screws manage to wank the USA.

Hey, a bunch of countries like Japan and Taiwan and Britain survived, too, they're just Swiss puppets. Also, the UNA is more of a Canada-wank than a USA wank, and it's still a Swiss puppet. I'd say the Caribbean Federation is closer to being the USA than the UNA, considering that it's run by US corporations, so technically still an Americascrew.
