Hmm, America eh? I'll have to give it some thought, I might have an idea or two

That sums myself up rather well as well (with the added caveat that I'm don't really know my way around a Qbam either). But I'll be taking part if I get any good ideas (and as long as no one minds low quality worlds being plonked down in the middle of the contest)

Interesting, I'll be keeping my eye on this

Fun fact, any mention of Anglo-Irish relations anywhere at anytime will almost certainly derail the conversation at hand. It's unfortunately the way things go. And, on a somewhat more relevant note, I'd like to join the large number of people who've voiced their appreciation for CalBear's...

Thank you very much Yes, that is indeed a (rather large) Bokhara. I've always had a bit of a soft spot for Russia's Central Asian protectorates, so I tend to much about with them a wee bit in my maps. The enlarged Korea is a legacy of China's Civil War ITTL (which began just before the...

It seems that a dull summer leads to me making boring repetitive series of maps. Oh goody :o But yes, there's another one, sorry bout this *** "In retrospect it seems rather easy to predict what happened to Russia. With an autocratic tsar reluctant to part with one iota of his power, a...

South America is, I should admit straight away, not my area of expertise, so I doubt it's particularly plausible. But aesthetically at least I quite like how it turned out. Simply put, Brazil had a rather messy breakup rather than going independent as a single state. In the end it was split...

At least yours got discussed :p

And here, following metastatis' advice (though since this version is keyless for now I'm not sure it's necessary), is the map:

It seems that when the map making muse strikes it does so repeatedly. I've already whipped up a sequel to the last map I posted here: *** The long expected war between the Triple Alliance and the Berlin Pact finally came in 1912. The spark that started the conflagration came in that...

Since I've decided this is going to become a series rather than a stand alone map I decided the best place for it for the time being is probably in here. Now, background. The POD is not particularly clear in my mind, though the main factor really is Portugal having a rather less crummy 19th...

Finished off my present roll of mapmaking by finished off my most recent project. Admittedly I did get quite lazy with the Pacific, and I eventually backtracked and settled on painfully convergent internal borders for the US rather than keep the unpleasant ones I had previously, but overall I'm...

An understandable place to give up considering how strange how political system is

I wonder, what does the pink in Northern Ireland denote?

I have to concur with the gentlemen above. A very interesting and detailed bit of work

It's only fair, my last set of maps gave all the good bits of British Columbia to the US and the rest of it to Russia. I'm just being balanced :p

My guess is an international/neutral zone around Constantinople and/or the Straits (though if the latter it should be a bit larger and extend southwards I think)

I'm working on it at the moment, but I'm somewhat stuck for ideas. The Americas have never really been my strong suit, and considering the POD (which, as noted, isn't really fixed, but is certainly too late to do too much mucking about with the various countries in the New World) I'm rather...

Zanzibar's in an awkward situation. Technically speaking they're completely independent. In practice they're more or less accepted internationally as within Britain's sphere of interest, and they are under a fair bit of British influence (and the present Sultan's a bit of an Anglophile to boot)...

Not quite true. While most of the Spanish population of Gibraltar left after it was taken by Britain some did indeed stay there. More Spaniards would come to Gibraltar over time, particularly Minorcans and quite a few Catalans IIRC). As Julius says, about a quarter of Gibraltarians have at least...
