Time to drag this old one out.

Just to get things a bit back on track, here's a WIP of a BAM in northeastern North America. I'm still working on a lot of the smaller details, and cleaning up my rough borders, but I'm liking the way it looks so far, and I figure it could be useful for a lot of secessionist New England timelines or early French vs English colonization maps.

If you'd like some help, I could do county borders for you.

And just about anything that involves a different war of 1812 or northern Maine border settlement.

1. I was thinking more of countries like Liechtenstein, Monaco etc which seem to have actually done quite well considering that they're not on the list above. For example, considering Monaco's overpopulation and likely lack of any viable food source for most of the population, I would not be surprised at a complete collapse and reversion to pre-technological levels.
2. So from your explanation it appears that it is quite possible to have journeys between two planets as long as both have the capability to build a rocket that can reach space, even without a mass driver. If so, it's curious that of the 148 planets with space travel capability (with 57 having mass drivers) only 17 have actually sent manned expeditions to other planets.
3. The first option seems better. Otherwise people in the UK and Togo will be quick to claim that they are best because they're closer to the original.

To be quite honest, I've never believed in true technological regression in post-collapse societies. Stagnation, certainly, but people wouldn't just abandon literacy, education, and technology altogether. Even in post-Roman times, there were technological innovations such as the horse collar, grindstone, and heavy plow.

In any case, small countries get a penalty to technological development in my model, but rich micronations with high HDI have numbers that mess with things a bit. Currently Monaco's tech level is calculated as 2026-equivalent, and Liechtenstein's is calculated to be 2011-equivalent.

Regarding space travel, I'm currently revising the exact capabilities of the various planets.

I've been on and off again working on depixelizing this. I decided to call it quits a while ago, since I'm going to college on Wed/Thurs, but in case anyone wants to finish it, here you go.

I know this is pretty soon for an update, but I'm not going to be able to work on this for a while, so I figure I'd post it. I tried to clean up a lot of the water borders and I finished whittling down the OTL borders of states and provinces.

I also just realized I forgot Lake Champlain entirely. Sorry about that.

I'll work more on it when I have the chance, but here's progress for now. I hope someone might find it useful even in the extremely rough state it's in right now.

To get things back on track from the maps of... questionable quality, I finally finished the 1792 map for my TL, The Faraway Kingdom. :) Most of the stuff different from my last Europe map will be answered in the next update (I don't know why people on this forum are so obsessed with Switzerland, but I'll try to answer what happens in this map there too).

Holy maccaroni! Good map!
So, first question fired:
Why is Switzerland still in the HRE?

I do in fact have something of (I hope) high quality: a map of Lyra's world from the His Dark Materials trilogy (writeup pending, as usual).

This was made in semi-collaboration with @MisterP. What do you think?
