You've just removed some nations from the map.
Note: There are still unclaimed islands in the Carribean.
OK, then I'm retconning: Geise Bay is TTL's name for the Gulf of St. Lawrence - not Hudson Bay. the Republic of Geise Bay is centered more-or-less on Quebec City.
I've read Reykjavik's original posts about Germany. It was the Hanseatic Pact until 1720, when a treaty tightened the alliance into a nation and it became North Germany. In that light I have a proposal for Trovador & Reykjavik:
German merchants began trading in Geise Bay (the St. Lawrence) in the early 1500s. By 1600 there were a number of settlements and trading posts both along the bay and inland along the rivers and into the Great Lakes. In the 1600s several of these settlements - along with a few chiefdoms that were reorganized along German lines - were gradually acknowledged as equal members of the Pact. Over time the Celts eventually took control of the land south of the Bay, but the German commercial network remained in control to the north.
Sometime after 1720, North Germany established a more tightly governed colony encompassing the Great Lakes. This became the Seestaat. The older trading network in the Quebec region became Geisebai.

OTL Quebec City is on the north bank of the St. Lawrence, which is definitely in the grey area of the map.
By the way, it may be that the two were governed as one colony, but had significant culture differences, different administrative structures at the local level, and maybe differing law codes.
But it has colonized Geisebai and Seestaat, wich are also in the top of the continent.
I really do need to read things properly. In that case the irony is maintained.
Now the hard part of developing TTL's common history can begin.
