At the moment I'll post a map with possible powers and lines of expansion. I did not expect such a slow sea level increase so I suppose Spain, the Ottoman Empire would rule big extensions. The English and Scottish would have to migrate to North America and I have included some other interesting candidates...

Sorry, can't see a lot of the migrations indicated.
Iberia, Anatolia, and the Uzbek lands are if anything more fertile. There is a likelihood if internal migrations as the coastal cities are flooded, but overflow elsewhere would be minimal.
England OTOH, is dead on. North America could well be the new home of the Tudors.
Refugees from the Hungarian plain will disrupt a lot of Central Europe politically, but not much moreso than the problems in north France and the Low Countries (not to mention the Baltic).
Again, the flooding of the Ganges is the trigger for more internal than external wanderings, of those directly affected, although some of the Tamils may be pressed enough from the north to take to the seas. The Padishah's capital in Dheli is in decent shape.
Some conquest and colonisation from Japan is inevitable given the density of the coastal plains, and I suspect *Siberia will end up ruled by the Mikado.
China... dissolves into chaos. as likely as not, and mass migrations into the Tibetan interior are not likely to work.
