DBWI: Wierd ATL Map of the Netherlands

And what is with that nation called Switzerland? you mean to tell me that Austria and a German state are major powers, and the Germanic speakers aren't able to overpower the other groups and join either one of those nations? How does the writer just depose of Austria's interested for a united Germany under their leadership? And does he realy think that Austria is just going to let Germany unite without it? Also what happened to Greece? A much smaller nation with a border pushed south, and a still functioning Ottoman state holding their Ionian possessions along with Constantinople?

I'm really upset that Russia is so wanked in this timeline. Not only did it pone Sweden, it gobbled up Kiev and the Ukrainian state! How does such a backwater take over a city that exerts such a strong political and cultural influence over it, and strip it of all the territory that the modern Ukrainian kingdom still firmly controls? Removing the dominate player in the black sea is absurd. Russia being able to barge into the caucuses between the Ukraine, Persia, and a resurrected Ottoman state also seems ASB. Finally, like so many other timelines I see, Poland gets smeared (All of the timelines seem to think that Poland would have no diplomatic ability to defend its self from alliances :rolleyes:). Eastern Europe, and especially the southern portions of it including the Balkans are so screwed up its sickening.
