I've tried being a bit more subtle for a change, not sure if it will work, I've had doubts about some somewhat glaring "changes" myself.
That's OK. You're trying, and we do respect people who do think things through here, even if that means that things aren't all that spectacular at first.
I'm also noticing:
- Quebec has separated from Canada (but you made the good move of not having the whole province go, as that was highly unlikely IOTL)
- Paraguay lost a bunch of land to Bolivia (Fought a war and Paraguay lost, perhaps?)
- Zambia and Zimbabwe are one country (I'm guessing that they were made into one colony when they were still both called Rhodesia)
- Katanga and South Sudan are independent (Successful independence movements?)
- Cameroon, Chad, the Central African Republic, Gabon and the French Congo are one country (No idea how you pull this one off. Maybe Cameroon and Gabon become one country and conquer their neighbors?)
- Kashmir is not part of India OR Pakistan (not sure how you get this one, either)
- Something is up with the two Koreas (NK has collapsed and SK has taken over the process of rebuilding, maybe)
- Scotland is independent (Why do people keep going with this idea, anyways?)
- Morocco took over Western Sahara (Spain won't like that one bit)
- Turkey has taken over Cyprus (Without a genocide, this one is ASB)
