AH Map Challange II

Yay! I win! Okay, the challenge is a map of Europe. You must have:

-A country that acts as a nation state for the Brlorussians and at least one other ethnic group.
-Poland, in personal union with a German state.
-There must be some sort of German Confederation.
-Italy must be made up of no more than three countries.
-There must be an Asian colony somewhere on the map. :D
-There must be at least two states founded on an ideology.
-There must be a Union of at least three states in the Balkans.
-There must be at least two Turkic/Turkish states on the map.
-There must be one muslim state, and no more, in Europe.
-There must be a Baltic Federation of some sort.
-Russia must be divided into at least two states.
-There must be a state that OTL is one of Austria's states.
-Mercia or Murcia
-There must be a state that is OTL known as a microstate at least the size of OTL Luxembourg
-Banat

I know it's a lot. I'm going to be pretty loose with these rules, so you can interpret the less exact ones how you want! And good for you if you can make one country fulfill more than one expectation!

Oh, and just in case anyone missed this, you can have more countries than the ones listed.

Erm, so I don't get yelled at this time I will ask my questions about the requirements now.

1. When you say Italy can be made up of no more then 3 countries do you mean the just the Italian peninsula, or are Sicily, Sardinia, and Corsica counted as possible Italian Countries?
2. When you say there must be an Asia colony on the map, can it be in the middle east and/or would Ottoman Crimea count.
3. Again in reference to the Asian Colony, since the Middle East is part of Asia, wouldn't any say something like Austrian Antioch technically be one of Austria's "Asian Colonies"? :p
4. Finally, what time period do you mean when you say, "There must be a state that OTL is one of Austria's states"? I assume you mean the Republic of Austria, but technically one could argue that Bohemia, Hungary, Transylvania, Venetia, ect, were Austrian states, and being me I would.
 
I would have loved to use this as my first foray in map-making on the site. But unfortunately you have selected two rules that have traumatized me beyond repair:

A state for the Byelorussians..I've never really accepted them as a true ethnicity/nation

a Polish state in PERSONAL UNION with Germany..how ghastly....

Yes..I am of Polish AND Lithuanian heritage....over 100 years in the US though :)

BUUUT I will be watching the challenge with great interest

Oh, I mean Poland in personal union with a German state such as Bavaria, Saxony, or Oldenburg. And You could have the Belorussian state also be a state for the russians.

Erm, so I don't get yelled at this time I will ask my questions about the requirements now.

1. I guess just the peninsula.
2. Of course. The middle east is (Mostly) in Asia.
3. Well, I guess that fits the wording of the requirement.
4. That fits the wording of the requirement, too.

Feel free to find loopholes! I guess! :D
 
Here is my map, I shall adress the requirements, but leave the rest of it up to you.

-A country that acts as a nation state for the Brlorussians and at least one other ethnic group.

Belarus is also home the the Ukrainians, as they don't have their own country.

-Poland, in personal union with a German state.

Poland with Brandenburg and Prussia.

-There must be some sort of German Confederation.

In German Grey.

-Italy must be made up of no more than three countries.

Has two, three if you count Sardinia.

-There must be an Asian colony somewhere on the map. :D

Japan has a colony in Africa.

-There must be at least two states founded on an ideology.

North Italy and North American Commune are both communist (use Soviet and ChiCom colors).

-There must be a Union of at least three states in the Balkans.

Serbia, Montenegro, and Bulgaria.

-There must be at least two Turkic/Turkish states on the map.

One Chinese puppet, other independant.

-There must be one muslim state, and no more, in Europe.

Albainia, I don't count Ottomans :p

-There must be a Baltic Federation of some sort.

Check.

-Russia must be divided into at least two states.

Siberia is independant.

-There must be a state that OTL is one of Austria's states.

Trento and whatever that is above it are a federation.

-Mercia or Murcia

Better yet, I Balkanized Spain.

-There must be a state that is OTL known as a microstate at least the size of OTL Luxembourg

Singapore controls that whole section.

-Banat

Check.

Just to clarify,

  • Belarus is is in a nation state with the Baltic peoples.
  • Peru is a radical socialist state, having risen up against La Plata.
  • China is a borderline fascist state, fanatically believing in the divinity of their Emperor and vehement nationalism and suppression of ethnic minorities in the west of the country.
  • The micro state is the Free City of Bombay.
  • The three states in Italy are the North Italian Federation, The Kingdom of the Two Sicily's and Austrian Venetia.
  • Macedonia ITL consists of Macedonians, Albanians and Kosovans, along with Serbs, Greeks and Bulgarians. It is Orthodox Christian, so the Ottomans are the only Muslim state in Europe.
If this isn't AH then I have no idea what is.

Hehehe

Erm so first the Key:

1. Union of Greater Lothringen
2. Rhenish Kingdom
3. Brandenberger Commune
4. United Kingdom of Lombardy and Venetia
5. Grand Duchy of St. Petersburg
6. Kingdom of Trebizond
7. Ottoman Federation
8. Turkish Sultanate

Now to check off all the requirements:

1. Lithuania controls all of OTL Belarus, Belorussians have gained similar rights to the Magyars of OTL Austria-Hungary.
2. Poland is held in personal union by the Archduke of Austria.
3. The Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation, dominated by Austria, all member states are either Austrian satellites or close Allies.
4. Piedmont, Lombardy-Venetia, & Naples
5. Austria holds the colonies of Antioch and Greater Lebanon, technically Israel is an Austrian Colony still, however that is just a formality so the Austrian Archduke can claim the title of King of Jerusalem. They are all considered parts of Austria's Asian Colonies.
6. The Free Gaullic Republic was founded on the principles of French Utopian Socialism, and the Brandenberger Commune was founded on the principles of Karl Marx's writings.
7. The Byzantine Empire exists in the Balkans and Asia Minor, it is similar in form and function to it's Northern Counter Part, the HREGN, with the King of Greece basically being hereditary Byzatine Emperor.
8. The Ottoman Federation was created during the Ottoman Civil War, between Republicans and Royalists. The Federation is rapidly collapsing due to its failure to confront ethnic issues in a nation where no ethnicity has a clear majority. The Turkish Sultanate currently comprises the territories that remained Loyal to the Sultan during the OCW. While technically the Royalists lost, in the long run, the Sultanate has been far better off with it's much more homogeneous society and culture.
9. Granada
10. The Baltic Union is an alliance of the Baltic states who fear attempts at reannexation by the aggressive Greater Russian Confederation. It is closely associated with the HREGN.
11. The Greater Russian Federation is the result of a revolution against the Romanovs based on principles similar to the one's that sparked OTL 1st Russian Revolution. The Democrats however could not take the Romanov Capital of St. Petersburg or the surroundings area, and when a peace was signed, they were forced to recognize the territory as an independent Royal Stronghold. This failure to completely remove the Romanovs from power underminded the new Democratic Government, which soon caved to a Military Junta.
12. Hungary, the Habsburgs were smart and got out.
13. Balkanized Spain; Murcia, Aragon, Granada
14. The Principality of Monaco becomes the Grand Duchy of Monaco.
15. That hunk between Hungary and Serbia.

By this rules you could unify Poland and Bile-O-Russia into a bigger Poland and have it in personal union with Prussia - Seperate from the German Confederation. Does Prussia have to be full of Germans?

*cough*

It said specifically a 'German State', so yes, I would assume so.


And a non-German or atleast Germanic Prussia is like having some sort of Danish Britain or, heaven forbid, a spanish France..
 
Ok, changed the map. I'm glad you pointed out those lines, because I'm guessing I was interupted when making it. I ment to have that one border being the Mississippi River, and that is now added (though my drawing of the river is quite poor :D). Added BC to Cascadia that I forgot, changed Siberia, gave Japan one more colony, and fixed the "line sceme" in africa.
