  1. Map Thread XXI

    Second in an 'America-as-Africa' series. See also: the Republic of Canosi. Modern-day Tuskalusa was the first region of North America to be colonized by Europeans. The Spanish colony of Florida was initially claimed in 1513 by Juan Ponce de Leon, and the first permanent Spanish settlement of...

    MOTF Xpost: From the perspective of its nationalists, Albania had long had the misfortune of being a state simultaneously too large and too small - that is, too small in its actual control of territory to realistically take the large swaths of land it rightfully claimed. An opportunity...

    From the perspective of its nationalists, Albania had long had the misfortune of being a state simultaneously too large and too small - that is, too small in its actual control of territory to realistically take the large swaths of land it rightfully claimed. An opportunity seemed to come with...

    No, you are correct, the western Sudetenland is part of Germany. That Baltic state was a German buffer state established by treaty following the war, but now a neutralish mostly native-led state.
  5. Map Thread XXI

    Austria and Prussia fought two wars in the 1840s and 1860s respectively. Prussia lost both, leading to an Austrian-led Germany which did not include Prussia (in much the same way OTL German excluded Austria). This 'greater German solution' was about as unstable as OTL Austria-Hungary; maybe...

    The U.S. Solidarity Corps has its roots in the 1950s, a decade and a half after the Great War ended in stalemate on the Western front and as the long period of semi-peaceful rivalry for influence between the Franco-American and Anglo-German blocs had begun to reach its heights. With the...

    34 minutes into the attack, the strategic forces of the United States have suffered a crippling blow. Of the 1000 Minuteman missiles, only 46 remain operational. Of the 330 B-52 bombers, all but 22 have been destroyed on the ground. Of the 41 ballistic missile submarines, 17 have been destroyed...

    Haha that's kind of the reason I wanted to put it sideways tbh. Especially with a concept so alien I like that it takes some time to figure it out, gives it some extra weight once the realization comes. Thank you!

    A native state in Carolina in a world where Native Americans were much more resistant to European diseases than in OTL. Location helper here.

    Is an epidemic/disease considerable as a natural disaster?

    This comment is within the quote. If you click through you will find it was posted in the MOTF thread, not in fact the WATNH one. This is because it is fictional and concerns a country which evidently does not exist. Please check your records if you must; you will find that no such actions took...

    It is a TTL post as shown by the fact it is within the quote. Both maps are evidently fictional.

    PRESS RELEASE The year 2010 saw the emergence of a series of worrisome trends that together present potentially serious threats to the stability of new democracies as well as obstacles to political reform in societies under authoritarian rule. Freedom in the World 2011, the latest edition of...

    Made for the reddit contest - still plenty of time to submit if you all are interested! This is a concept I've had in my head for a long time - Japan as China. This area is not my historical specialty, so again I have to apologize for any clear mistakes or implausibilities - let me know if there...

    I'm glad you liked it! Re the Kirghiz border, that's an effect of the projection - it doesn't go substantially further north than the OTL Kazakh one.

    Yes and yes, and Manchuria too. The situation was very hot and unstable in the 70s and 80s, but there is a modicum of detente now.

    Chaoshan by a lot, followed by Hokkiong, Nanyue, and Wuyue. The DRC, Sichuan, and Manchuria both suffered from extended periods of dictatorship which limited their development potential; the RoC and Dian are still in that category. Bouxcuengh is moderately democratic but very underdeveloped. I...

    MOTF Xpost: My attempt at a 'schoolbook style'. Inspired by this map, which I've had in my 'to cover' folder forever, and by @King of the Uzbeks' recent infobox, seemingly inspired by the same map, which made me realize I should go and actually do a map on it. I wanted to note here that this is...
