The map shows the situation in North America around late 1865, and looks much the same in 1868, where the main difference is Georgia having been defeated by the Union.
Seems interesting, but consider using an updated basemap.

The only basemap I have that's not like this one is the Q-bam, and that's hardly a American-Civil-War era map. Where can I go to get better basemaps?

My God, those borders are actually worse than IOTL. How on earth did you manage that?
Through intimate knowledge of the area
Now honestly what is so bad about the borders?

Yep.Is that a British military 'protection zone' on Persia's border with Russia?
Need to finish the map first. Lots of dominions though.May I request that you list out the British monarch's titles in the way that the Czars did? Perhaps with some ridiculous claims, like how the Russians said the Czar was "Heir of Norway". Come to think of it, would anyone be willing to make a map delineating the various entities claimed by those Russian Emperor's titles?
Yep. The Prussians got Belgium post-Napoleonic war in TTL, and then were close to the Dutch and helped them out during a revolt and one thing led to another and there was a personal union.Are the Low Countries Prussian on your map!?!
Hardcore.
Quoting images still isn't good.In case I've suffered from end-of-page syndrome, I'll repost this:
A post-civil war Texan insurgency?!

I'm taking the blue as some form of Prussian Blue, so I give you (inspired by an old map of Lascupa0788, BTW),

The declaration of armistice in Italy on September 8th 1943 forced the government of the Independant State of Croatia (ISC) to act and open negotiations with the Allies to switch sides. Amids chaos and confusion, that was achieved on September 10th followed by a symbolic Allied landing in Split and joint attack of Partisan and ISC forces on German occupation force. The senior members of the ISC govenment agreed ISC merging with Socialist Republic of Croatia within the futre Federal Socialist Republic of Yugoslavia in return for their amnesty and life long exile into the Allied/Neutral country willing to accept them. It would take another 2 years before all of Yugoslavia was liberated and when the time came to negotiate the internal structure of the new state two largest nations, Serbs and Croats split the spoils close to what was agreed before the war. Famous warleader Tito died under undisclosed circumstances in spring 1946 during his visit to Moscow and Yugoslavia became one of the founding members of the Sarajevo Pact in 1948.
During the Cold War Yugoslav veterans performed important instructor duties in conflicts in SE Asia, Africa and Central America and drew the ire of USA on the 'little union' as Yugoslavia was known in the west. In the late '80 as the Communist world began to disintegrate Yugoslavia based on an ideology of socialist selfsustainability soldiered on. When YNA (Yugoslav National Army) interweened to prevent the colapse of communist governments in Greece and Romania CIA decided Yugoslavia as a "threat to world peace" would have to be removed.
The Yugoslav muslims and Albanian population provided fertile ground for CIA operatives to stir trouble. By the time USSR fell apart in 1992 everything was prepared for the begining of the Balkan Intifada. Guerrilla warfare soon engulfed almost a quarter of the country but the YNA counter offensive cought the CIA and NATO officials unprepared. In the first week following the uprising nearly 500 000 reservists had been called to service and YNA launched a sistematic purge of the countryside for any pockets of resistance.
Now is November 26th 1992 and the Intifada is close to being broken after a month of savage fightings in the countryside and settlements with muslim/Albanian majority. The federal district of Sarajevo looks like a warzone and much of the city has been destroyed in the battles that raged, with neither side showing any mercy. Since the conflict began the remaining communists governments in Greece, Romania and Bulgaira were toppled leaving Yugoslavia the only Communist country in Europe. While rebels bled NATO wasn't idle and amased a considerable force in Italy and Albania that is only hours from comencing the attack.
As the attack from the west looks imanent Italian minority in the west has staged an uprising hoping to free themselves from slavic barbarity. As far as the yugoslavs are concerned they ready their weapons for the battle against the "Capitalists Swines" and Despicable Turks" swearing by Tito's name on their Brootherhood and Unity.
What will future bring no one knows for sure but blood and death on a scale unseen in Europe since WWII looks certain.
