If history is an indicator, that won't end well.
An
alliance with Armenia and, say, Greece against the Turks would make more sense. It could even be historically semi-plausible if we assume an alt-WWI and Greece taking a large Chunk of Turkey.
Which is the puppet, North or South Korea?
Artifact of the original base map, which I think is showing that each claims the other.
I don't suppose the person would allow you to post what the resquest was? I am guessing Tibet got wanked and independent early on and both China's just accepted it? Oh, and... Yest, this is hilarious. Assam and the other regoins of India over there are completely landlocked. Surprised there it didn't break up into a bunch of states to be in the Tibetan orbit. He specify Valencia had to be Catalonian? And is Liechenstein in the EU? Brunei British, independent, or Chinese here?
I don't think he'd mind...

He specified that the world remain as unchanged as possible: the only important change I made was making Nova Scotia part of the US (because it just made no sense that it remain part of rump Canada if New Brunswick and Newfoundland were both under the Francophone Iron Heel).
Oopsie on Liechenstein. Copy/paste error.
Brunei is independent: the trouble with these "every nation it's own color" basemaps is that a number of the colors are hard to distinguish.
