I erased it from my comp, but I'm sure it lurks in the depths of this thread somewhere... Or you can ask Oth. I made it for him, and he may still have it.

I've been trying to search for it, but as I'm sure you are well aware, this thread is quite massive . . .

WORLD, 1945.
world1945lp7.png

The Second World War is nearly over, as the allied powers advance towards Paris, and liberate the rest of Europe. The Western Allies fall upon resistance in northern France, and slowly make approach Paris. All across formerly french-occupied Europe, the peoples under the french boot throw off their collaborator rulers. In France, socialists rebel in the southeast. As Russian and British forces sweep across Europe, they are discovering evidence of the Franco-Turk genocide of the balkan and eastern european slavs. At the same time, the Asian Empire is undergoing a tumultuous civil war between the loyalist forces of the Empire, the nationalist Republic of China, the communist People's Republic of China, the marxist-socialist Manchu Republic, and the independent Theocratic Union of Tibet.

This is a world where the Normans of Sicily and France/England became one united empire. Along with Castile, they colonized the New World (the Treaty of Oviedo split the Americas north and south between them). Irish refugees, fleeing the Norman takeover of their island in the 15th century, fled to *North America and established a state along the *St. Lawrence River.

Poland, meanwhile, stayed strong and created a globe-spanning trade empire, sort of like the Dutch of OTL writ large. As the 20th century dawned, the world had been wracked by a nuclear conflict between the Ottoman and Chinese empires (both industrialized in the early 18th century). A movement called Collectivism (think Communism combined with Freemasonry), created by a Bulgarian called Vasceny, spread throughout the broken remains of the former superpowers, and by 1960, the two nations were strong once more... and this time, they were allied.

The Triple Alliance of Normandy, Castile, and Poland is all that stands between freedom and complete Collectivist victory.

Strikes me that the Poles must have had good relations with the Normans for a looong time to build an overseas empire with that very chokeable single access to the North Sea...and boy the Chinese collectivists must be mad about the Alliance military bases in Imperial China. Fun stuff.

Very interesting map you have there Diamond.

...and about Luzonia! I would be happy about that setup, though my friends who aren't from Luzon might not take it well, so i'm showing it to them. :rolleyes: :D
 
Is the HRE united, or is it OTL's mess?
Neither, rather its made of several large states lead by the Guelphs of Saschen, and supported by their cousins in Bavaria, Florence and Savoy. The work extensively with two Hansa like leagues in the Baltic, and Lombardia. There is of corse opposition, however the current Guelphs have worked hard to stablise their power, and be a 3 quaters majority when-ever they can. However its starting to turn from external oppoisition to family intrigues.
