Map Thread VIII

[Unholy Mistress]

First, I suggest a earlier PoD for North America. If you do choose that, then here is an edited map with a few things added.

Besides the changes in North America, what else did you change?


and I wanted America to collapse, for no reason, lmfao.

I suggest using Polk's campaign "Fifty Four Forty or Fight" as a PoD and there being an actual Oregon War, one where America loses. Then it tries invading Mexico but Mexico repels the USA and reclaims Texas.

I see, but that makes the South America situation make no sense, lmfao.

Not neccessary. It could have been the result of a peace. Europe before and after WWII was very different. Why not South America? And call your Soviet Union something else. How about "The Russian Socialist Federative Republic"?

Why do I have to call the USSR something else?


I might use the map for a NG eventually. idk, lmfao

The USSR is butterflied away. If you do this as a NG, then can I suggest a name? A Strange World, Indeed.

How is the USSR butterflied away? if the WWI and the October Revolution still happend as per OTL?

OK, let me explain. With a PoD in the 1840s, you can forget about WWI, the October Revolution and the like. There may be analogues.

I still had it happen in the TL.

Here's a map I made while bored at work over the past few weeks: the post codes of Massachusetts, CNE. Now here's your challenge: what does each letter pair stand for?

Let's see. PT for Pittsfield, SD for Springfield, NT for Northampton, GR for Greenfield, WR for Worcester, LW for I guess Lowell or Lawrence, TU for I guess Taunton, NW for Newton, SL for Somerville maybe, PY for Plymouth, BN for Barnstable, and NK for Nantucket. All guesses really, but living in Western Massachusetts helps.

Highlighted in red are wrong. Where in Western Mass do you live?

Then your TL is very unrealistic. The annoyingly convergent African boundaries and random French Australia all seem to point simply toward someone just getting "fill-bucket-happy" on Microsoft Paint.

convergent African Boundaries? I barely touched the borders of Ssouth Africa.

and the TL wasen't meant to be realistic anyway.

 

[Emperor-of-New-Zealand]

That's what convergent means.

With an early POD, you have to account for all the changes that would be in effect. For instance, with a British Oregon, you might see a Britain even more colony-happy than it was in OTL.

That's exactly what he meant. Convergent boundaries are those which parallel those of our own timeline to a highly implausible degree.

Well the TL isen't suppose to be realistic, or consider Butterflys, but pre tell, what borders would those be?

If the TL isn't supposed to be realistic, then you really shouldn't ask for comments on it, since there's nothing to say unless it looks pretty.

Ohh, sorry.

Your kind of being tough on her about it. I usually ask for comments about my maps when they are ASB. You see to be the only person who has a problem with it.
