So the challenge is to have by the year 2000 or something like that this scenario in the middle east and surroundings with a POD after 1815:

-Syria and Lebanon united creating a secular country with "Syriac" as the main language.

-Palestine,Israel and Jordan united in a secural Arab-Syriac-Israeli country with multiple national language. There is no necessity of mass Jewish migration so possibly no genocide in Europe.

-Independent Assyria, biggerst as possible but by make it still remaining demographically functional. Highly cooperative with Kurds and special religious minorities.

-Bigger Armenia with Wilsonian border at least. As Assyria highly cooperative with Kurds.

-Completely Greek Cyprus.

-Secular Egypt with influential Coptic minority or strong use of Coptic language by the Coptic community and maybe Egyptian population too.

-Zero Wahabi Arabian country.

-The Horn of Africa is one single and hopefully functional country. By horn I mean OTL Ethiopia,Eritrea and Somalia plus any land you think is worth adding.

-Strong Federal Georgia with Ossetia(both South and Russian) and Abkhazia still under Georgian rule but, as the rest of the country´s provinces, autonomous.

-Persian Azerbaijan is part of an united Azeri country.

-Secular Caucasian Confederation, in the OTL Russian share of the Caucasus.

-Non-theocratic Iran/Persia with possibly a Kurdish autonomous region.

-Iraqi Arab province in Iran/Persia under Iraq rule, Iraq is either secular or Muslim but still pluralist country.

Super-Ultra optional and bonus point(s):
-Greek Costatin... wait for it... ople! And Thrace. Or at least make it a international or shared zone.


In general the scenario would be better to come with less genocides and ethnic or religious violence as possible, wars and total wars are still allowed of course but I guess that any ethnic violence would make most of the points impossible to make.
