@Admiral A. Kolchak I was literally just about to see if anyone could translate your 1936 map to HOI4...

- Thread starter Linbot
- Start date
Here's a boring return to regular maps. If anyone wants me to continue with my "It's-basically-just-EYWoR-but-less-of-a-clusterf*ck" mod, you can say so. I might work on it for personal use anyways though.
Kwangsi-Kwangtung Plot
Kwangsi-Kwangtung Plot

Um, I think you need to fix the dates in the corner of the last handful of maps.
Suiyuan Campaign

The War of Resistance is just one slide away!

Am I the only one that has noticed the fact that Nepal and Bhutan don't exist in these maps?
I've shown them as part of British India. Does anyone have dates for when they became independent of British influence?
Bhutan stopped being a British protectorate with the independence of India in 1947. Although under British influence before then, they formally became a protectorate in 1910. IIRC, it shouldn't be considered part of the Raj.
Nepal has never (formally) been a British protectorate, though it was friendly towards Britain.

To add to this, Bhutan’s protectorate status wasn’t really British rule, but more akin to being a British satellite, since the treaties specifically guaranteed Bhutanese independence.
It's unfortunately way too late to fix this, but I can at least give them independence in 1947, whenever we get there.
Wasn't Sikkim also nominally independent?

Sikkim’s kind of a grey area. It might be in the same sort of situation as Bhutan, but I’ve also seen it considered as a princely State, so I’m not really sure. But it definitely was independent post-1947.
Welcome back to Kolchak's Warlord Atlas, the part of AH.com that's so boring even the history geeks here can't use it.

There is nothing boring here, I can assure you. This is very interesting.
And my interest is nothing whatsoever to do with a TL I am totally not currently writing...

I also have a day-by-day series of slides for this (which I used to create the maps above), but I'm really bad at making .gifs, so it'll have to wait.
On the other hand you are actually using it to create something, which proves that my work here is successful.

Cool, but silence is boring.If you're wondering why there haven't been anymore maps lately it's because I've been working on this (yeah I have a youtube channel now
