The "east" coast of Antarctica looks an awful lot like Ireland's east coast...Random doogle, I'd post it in FH maps but thats got a whole 'cesspool' vibe going for it...

You created a utopia! Are you okay?
Well, to be fair, it is a reasonable name- especially if the people coming up with the name might not want to be that clear on just how united this Union is, so I wouldn't call all that unrealistic that it sometimes shows up in timelines with a pre-1993 POD.Good concept (and map), Bruce, but in one of my usual displays of pedantry, I have to criticise the presence of a "European Union" - everyone seems to forget the term was only coined in 1993 and to have it appear in TLs with PODs this early seems rather convergent. A much more popular phrase among euro-federalists back before and immediately after WW2 was "United States of Europe".

Updated the AFLE map I did a bit back. Between 2009 and 2012, the Edinburgh Highlanders moved to Inverness and teams were added in Venice and Zurich. In 2013, two more teams will be added in La Palma, Oslo, and Rome. The AFLE has quickly grown in popularity in northern Italy and there are rumors that more teams will be coming from there in the near future. Meanwhile, French officials in the league have been complaining about there still only being two teams to represent France.
Also, sorry about the big empty space in the east. I forgot/was too lazy to crop it before I saved it.
Someone suggested that for Europe, I liked it, so I ran with it."Zurich Gnomes?" I think the "Pikers" would be a much better name.
I was thinking of doing a team in Bordeaux or Strasbourg, but couldn't think of names. Thanks.Anyway, for the next round of French expansion teams, I vote for the "Bordeaux Privateers" and the "Strasbourg Brewers"
That was pretty much my first reaction when seeing the map. A B_Munro map where the entire world isn't a FAT-esque shithole?! There has to be something wrong with him.You created a utopia! Are you okay?

At a loss right now for ideas for maps.
Anyone have any?
