Then it's just a matter of the Free World ganging up on those damn sneaky Dutchmen! Kalmar can regain rightful clay, Australia could have a chance to shine and CoCaro could get a slice of Zuidafrika to make the Jacksonland bordergore just a bit less eye-searing.

I'm all for an oirish update but also *booooooooooo* no mercy for anyone! Maybe a British Isles update could show me that Britain hasn't just been fucking around this whole time.Personally, I’m still rootin’ everyones favourite Monarchist People’s Socialist Kingdom of Ireland to lead the world to glory and peace

I loved the conversation about Carolina earlier up in the thread. The way I view all the dynamics everyone mentioned is that the Cokies probably are something of a distant 2nd (or 3rd depending on the status of the Dutch) most powerful nation in the Free World and has a love-hate view of the Union.
This put a really weird image in my head. Imagine a WMIT Hetalia style show where America is some kind of crazy Yandere type, and every so often the other Pinnacle powers remove themselves from her orbit, but the long-suffering Cokie stays behind because true love.
We shall replace bordergore with accent and culturegore! The map will become prettier, and in return the world shall have to endure the birth of the Carolinian-Afrikaner hybrid accent and culture! Hark the Sound of messed up cultures!
CoCaro is truly everything that would be bad about a surviving Confederacy, but when its own brand of evil has been so thoroughly overshadowed it becomes an interesting study in contrast. For that reason I'd like for CoCaro to be around as long as possible, and also because... it's kind of the RU's only friend

Dude, no. The world can't take Hetaliafied madness. Not after what happened IN KAISERREICH!
Spend too long in this thread and the Madness starts to get you too
If this happens, Kaiserin Erika will officially become the most unlucky ruler of the WMIT universe. Her husband and her son died, her country collapsed in a four-way civil war that resulted in its balkanisation (by the way is it called "Germanisation" in this universe?) and all her former allies abandoned her.
At this point she truly deserve an hug
In the spirit of culturegore, strange accents, and giving CoCaro a colonial empire made entirely of wedges, I give you:
CoCorea
CoCorea
eh, given whose picture Napoleon used for her she'll just have to go over to r/kaiserreich, they'll be happy to oblige
Alright fellas this just gave me a horrifying thought. Let's say that Carolina took Korea (unlikely, but hilarious). Then, let's say that Charlotte and Philly give the Koreans "Lost Jew" status because OTL Imperial Japan ran with the idea that Korea and Japan were of the same race and had the same progenitor to make administration easier. After all, you can still hate the Chinese, Indochinese, etc.
Theoretically, if this series of events occurs, I could be born in the Madnessverse. Granted, my grandpa and dad were/are Yankees (Marylanders) but it could happen. Which is utterly horrifying to think about.
Also, Chapel Hill has a Korean fried chicken joint IRL. I've eaten there, and it's absolutely delicious. I would also propose pulled pork sandwiches with kimchi (it would basically be a spicy BBQ sandwich) and bulgolgi sandwiches with coleslaw. There are a surprising number of ways that a Carolina-Korean culture could work.
I for one am proud for having helped create this Madness Meme, long may the Red Emerald Kingdom reign under the watchful eye of Comrades Connolly and Collins.Personally, I’m still rootin’ everyones favourite Monarchist People’s Socialist Kingdom of Ireland to lead the world to glory and peace

Building on my CoCorea idea, if it ended up a staging ground for a MacArthur invasion of mainland China could we see a Manchuria renamed something crazy insensitive like Nippochina for something in the Indochina vein?
No, please! Korea is one of the last bastions of sanity in this world, don't do this to them!
