Haha! Victory is Mine! Now for all you map makers, I issue my Map Challenge!
I require a Map of Europe in an ideological Cold War. As far as what the conflicting ideologies are, I leave that up to you, however they cannot be Democracy/Capitalism vs. Communism as in OTL, both sides must have a dominant Nation (ex. USA and USSR), and one side's dominant nation must be a Habsburg Monarchy, though the Monarchy does not have to be based in Austria(come on now you knew when I won I'd want a Habsburgwank).
Further requirements:
- Scotland and Ireland cannot be part of England/Britain, but both must either lead or be held in personal union with a continental European Nation, though not the same one. EDIT. Scandinavian Nations don't count as continental... because I said so.
- France must be balkanized into atleast 3 distinct countries.
- Aragon must be present in some form.
- There must be an Austria-Hungary style Dual Monarchy though not involving either Austria or Hungary.
- The Pope cannot be in Rome or on the Italian peninsula for that matter.
- Russia's borders cannot exceed those of present day Russia's borders. EDIT. In Europe, I don't give a crap about their borders in Central and East Asia.
- The Ottomans/Turks cannot have any holding outside of Asia Minor, aka the Balkans, the Middle East, and Caucasia.
- Switzerland cannot exist, no ifs, ands, or buts.
- There may be some for of third party alternative (ex. OTL's Non-Aligned Movement).
- Other Countries can and should exist besides the ones mentioned.
- The Cold War does not have to occur during the same time our's did.
Questions? Comments? Concerns?
