    An absolutely fantastic map, but I feel Illyria may not be the best of names for the Croat dominated kingdom. As the previous Kingdom of Illyria (there were several over the past couple thousand years) had covered Istria, Carinthia, and Carniola, and had been dissolved around 1850, it might be...

    Sweden and Norway were in a personal union, with different parliaments, constitutions (if the Swedes evennhad one back then), flags, armies, and even physical Crown Jewels and regalia. Perhaps in future maps show them as such, or at least have a border between them, plus two capitals? I imagine...

    What is going on inside of Bulgaria? Autonomous local governments for Turks and Pomaks?

    WI: Byzantine Emperor converts to Islam?

    Depends who he tells his plans too and how public they are. I expect for the sake of morale the Emperor died falling off a wall, his mangled body breaking the fall of a baby someone dropped.

    Occupied but not annexed? May want to change the Jan Mayen back to Norwegian.

    Ahhhh. I assumed this was all about the color verse map, where Congo was blue. Anyways, it seems a simple enough map. Spain weniets Get a lot of buffer states in China, and countries unrelated to the invasion of Japan get occupation zones, despite their homelands being blasted to pieces and not...

    It is in Dunwich. Some things can be safely implied. The Church of Starry Wisdom is also apparently a Lovecraftian location, though the books has it on the mainland. I am unsure if the two Victoria Monuments are referencing anything. Come to think of it, looks like Massachusetts has part of...

    The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    He was supposed to be fully focused on the future of the Reich, with no distractions. Part of why he had the lights on in his office kept on at night even when he was sleeping, or How propaganda said he was a vegetarian and teatoller. He ate sausage and drank beer. A lot of stuff is just...

    I feel it is a low blow, comparing people here to Pat Buchanan.

    Considering there is usually a fifty percent chance on a baby being either gender, how does that work?

    I imagine it might be a mistake and he meant to color in Nassau.

    You might be able to get away with it in a way, if in your worlif you say it is an umbrella term for the Eastern Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox churches. The names sound similar but there are some differences, with Russia and Georgia having separate Eastern Orthodox Churches, while Armenia has...

    Brussels was a shoo-in for this, given Belgium has the most concise name among the countries, though no doubt there were second doubts when the name of the person chosen by the Belgians could pass for a comic book villain during WWII. Are Malta and Cyprus colonies or Dominions here or are they...

    Huh. I feel there would still be dominion color colors outlining the dominions. And that the British wouldn’t have black national borders separating Wales, Scotland, and Devonshire from England. Or for the British or Canadians to keep some of the Caribbean islands or Belize. Or for Armenia to be...

    AHC: Make Duchy of Burgundy and its possible successors exist as a national political entity to this day

    If Belgium, Franche-Comte, and Bourgogne were all combined, they may still have less than th minimum population number given by the OP. Hmmm...

    AHC: Largest possible Duchy of Warsaw

    And then we would also need to consider who the king would be. Would it continue to be elected? Would it stay with the Wettin main branch or would it go to a younger son as his dynastic possession? Apparently a lot of institutions in Poland were given autonomy by the French, though from Saxony...

    Victoria and Albert swap

    I am a bit disappointed, as I originally thought this would be about their minds switching at some point. I suppose it would be in another section then, though. This would still be disappointing in a way, as it means Victoria doesn’t make as big a mark as she did. While this may just be a...

    WI: James the First united Britain?

    For which we are still awaiting the details. Let’s start with... What do they do with the Crown Jewels of England and Scotland? And perhaps Wales I suppose, given this was before so much of the stuff that had been building up over the centuries was still intact. Of course back then and even...

    WI: James the First united Britain?

    Lots of people would lose or have some power diluted, plus there was the issue of English and Scottish nationalism. Heck, let’s just think about parliament. How would it be arranged so that the Scottish had an acceptable number of members without the English thinking they had too many given the...
