Map Continuation X

​
Europe

​
Simply because I have no idea what number this is, welcome to Map Continuation X! Map Continuation 3, which to many was a highly successful edition of the brand, has flopped at last, and some of the members are eager to start again.

The aim of the game is to create a world. There is no game at the end of the creation, it is an effort in world building to create a realistic impression of a world diverging from a POD of 1400, but starting with creating the countries. We then build a realistic world around that.

This MC will have a more manageable POD of 1400, but of course that’s not set in stone, so we can fiddle around with dates later on. The current time period of the MCX universe is 1900, so we have colonial empires galore.

Areas coloured grey on the map are NOT allowed to be claimed on, as they are part of other continents. Borders must be ONE PIXEL THICK and coloured black. The map must always be saved as a PNG image.

The moderators are myself, Benkarnell and Knepah, and we have reserve a right to alter borders slightly if we see fit. Note that you may claim several nations on one continent, but try to keep it to no more than two unless we need more.

So, I’ll claim the first nation: The United Kingdom of Denmark and the Netherlands, which I expect is a very minor colonial power.

PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a map game/nations game. This is a map continuation. You do NOT claim in turns, and if you do not post a map, you have NOT made a claim.

I claim the North Western Iberian peninsula, claim shown on map with more details will come this night!

EDIT: Actually... Forget that, though I still claim.

A Portuguese colonial empire is a much different thing from an Empire of Portugal. An Empire of Portugal implies that the region of Portugal itself, in this case the territory you have claimed on the European map, is vast and powerful enough to be an Empire in its own right, whereas a colonial empire will not usually be named an empire officially and will not confer the title of "Emperor" upon its head of state.

In any case I'd advise not claiming any specific titles at the moment and waiting to see what the rest of Europe, and indeed the world, will look like in this timeline.

Claiming should be allowed. It prevents people from making conflicting maps. People'd just be claiming the chance to make a map, not a nation.

@Gand - It might be a good idea to explain just what is the goal here and just how it will work.

@Krall - reconciling all those titles is half the fun! Of course, they can change and evolve as the rest of the world comes into focus.

OK, my claim. It's fairly out on a limb. This is the Luxemburg Empire, also known as Bohemia for short - something like TTL's Habsburgs. A few early attempts to make colonies, but nothing serious or permanent. One of the major powers on the Continent, however.

The Emirate of Siciliy. Hopefully this won't turn out to be too implausible.

Edit: Added the decadent, mewling infidel state of Bohemia.
