Created an Asian version of the EU. I don't think it was worth my time, but I made it anyways:
I think Arab League or ASEAN make better EU analogues for Asia.

I think Arab League or ASEAN make better EU analogues for Asia.
True, but I was trying for an East-asian version.
I like the "Asian EU" idea, @weaverj , but it would basically be "China and its buddies". To make it more balanced, I would add Southeast Asia including the Phillippines and Indonesia.
Heck, I'd recommend breaking up China into at least a couple of nations (perhaps Manchuria, North China, South China, independent Hong Kong and Macao, Tibet, and Xinjiang) to reduce their power in the community. In fact... I'm now inspired!

Mexico, Deseret, and Outer Canada, but if you go really far west, there is Russian territory in Washington.
Thanks! I assumed when I was putting it together that the Revolutionary Council would want to ensure that:
1) Every county was divided between at least two new administrative regions;
2) No region would be viable by itself or remotely military defensible in the case of some sort of uprising; and
3) Each region would be politically dominated by one or several urban areas (to prevent backsliding into rural nostalgia).
The Regions and Regional Capitals of the Union of Britain (1976)
On their victory in the brief if bloody Second Civil War following the violent suppression of the 1926 General Strike, the British People's Revolutionary Council attempted to do away with reactionary and bourgeois attachments to the pre-Revolutionary British counties by establishing new administrative regions on the French Revolutionary model, named after the principal rivers that flowed through each.
What happened to Man and the Channel islands? I doubt the union would care about feudal distinctions like crown dependencies.
The Channel Islands might just be part of the Commune of France, and Man may have been nabbed by Ireland.
Due to their new custom of naming things after larger rivers the islands stumped them. Or of course they didn't want to stretch the map so much be showing the Channel Islands and Shetland.
