It seems like Britain and Japan are the only island states which could have been superpowers at any point. There aren't many others in ATLs either.

How many can you justify? Bonus points if they're in the same timeline.

Britain
Japan

Ireland
Iceland (Viking wank.)

Nova Scotia. The capital of a superpower Canada or Quebec might be here.
Newfoundland
Long Island. The capital of a superpower New England might be here.

Pirate states.
Cuba, Puerto Rico, Marajó (island in the mouth of the Amazon), Bahamas, Madagascar

Sicily, Cyprus, Sardinia

Vancouver Island
Hawaii, Tonga, Tahiti, Samoa, Ponape

Borneo, Sumatra, New Guinea, New Zealand, Luzon, Java, Taiwan, Hainan

I've left out plenty for various reasons. Which of these is highly unlikely to be some kind of center of a significant political state?

The POD can be any time, and you can posit future histories with PODs in the distant past if you want.
