And here's the map:
Cool Map, what base did you use? cos that looks quite nice. I have been trying for a similar effect but my maps are always to big bitwise to post
And here's the map:
Epic map, SRegan.
Just epic.
Particularly interested in Germany. Is it a Germany we can relate to, or have the changes been so great that it is virtually unidentifiable?
How come in all these maps, the US always gets the short end of the stick

Its capital is Prague. That makes it virtually unidentifiable to me.

It's because, despite the wet-dreams of many fat Ameriteens, America was very lucky to gain as much territory as it did IOTL.
Cornwall does not equal Devon. Just so were clear, and you aren't forewarned about the horde of angry British members about to descend. Very nice map though. Pretty.
And here's the map:
Very nice! Is that your own basemap? Someone mentioned when I posted something similar on the Blank Map Thread that there was already a Ptolemy-style ancient world base, but I was never able to find it. Are the 'New Lands' the Americas? 'Israel in exile' ( ) looks suspiciously like Panama, but Ethiopia-over-the-seas implies they are indeed in the southern hemisphere. Isn't Hy-Brasil usually depicted as an island on its own?
Don't listen to him! Devon was stolen from the Cornish! LONG LIVE UBER CORNWALL!!Cornwall does not equal Devon. Just so were clear, and you aren't forewarned about the horde of angry British members about to descend. Very nice map though. Pretty.
Another first-rate map, to be sure. But I note you still haven't explained Scottish colonial success: perhaps English refugees provide some more manpower, but the Scots hardly have the resources to protect settlers from the Spanish colossus or from the French, if they decide to move into N. America beyond the arctic bits they seem to have obtained. And although the Gaelic names are nice, hadn't lowland Scots (a Germanic language) become dominant by the mid-15th century time of the POD? That extra English manpower wouldn't be speaking Gaelic, either.
Sorry if I offend...

PS-when and how did Mexico/Mecica become independent?
There is no White Ship Disaster in 1120. William Adelin ascends the English throne as William III. Geoffrey Plantagenet marries Bertha, Duchess of Brittany. As OTL Eleanor of Aquitaine's first marriage to Louis VII is without issue, and in 1150 she takes Frederick Barbarossa for her husband
I am doing some research for one, though I don't know quite how far the idea will go yet.This idea is so interesting that it would be worth a TL!
Prussian Bohemia - AWW YEAHAnd here's the map. (Any resemblance to SRegan's world is purely coincidental)
