Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

QBAMmed. Although the article talks about Kaufman's plan ("Germany Must Perish!") a bit, AFAIK the modern map wasn't anything from real life. The actual Kaufman plan is below:

Do you have any idea what the arrows on Slovakia are supposed to represent?

Indecisive as to which country Slovakia was going to be ceded to

Apparently, Tito came close to absorbing Albania into Yugoslavia:

Is there any particular reason for that, though? I imagine that the annexation is because of the Tiso regime, but if punishing collaborationist regimes was the intention, surely other states would be facing territorial loss as well.

Probably something like "Have Slovakia expand into Poland/Hungary? Maybe?"

[EDIT] No wait, Bennett's right. BTW there's a good worlda of the Kaufman plan on page 1.

No clue. Based off the map, the dude was a madlad.

Might part or all of Kosovo be annexed to Albania?

No clue. The wikipedia article of Albanian-Yugoslav relations state that Albania would be swallowed as the seventh republic of Yugoslavia, so I think Kosovo was up in the air.

The full Balkan Federation plan - even by Comintern - was... intense.

Took about an hour and a lot of guess-work but here's a QBAM of the proposed United States of Greater Austria
(I know someone's probably done this before and better, but I'm proud so let me have my moment in the sun, a'ight?)

colored (SUCK)

no color (I personally like the aesthetic of blank with internal divisions)

 

[Oliveia]

Another USGA but this time with the autonomous exclaves:

and again, no color:

Alright, here's an attempt at a worlda of that New States by 2010 map I showed off. The borders were a lot simpler this time, but they were also way less detailed so I had to a bit of guess work so I'm not entirely sure if I represented them right. Regardless, here are the new states along with some colours to show off potential further border changes that were included on the map.

I find it interesting how we're redoing maps from early in the thread.

More maps = good.

Is it too late to attempt to Index the thread to prevent this?

I can understand updating maps for accuracy or turning them into a new format. Of course an index would help so that people don't feel tempted to do pointless stuff.

I'm not certain how one goes about doing that.

The OP (you, in this case) can use threadmarks.

 

[oshron]

i'd think it would be better to make a page about this on the wiki instead, providing both the original proposal maps and the final Worlda/QBAM maps to an entry, and possibly with some textual context
