Bremen-Verden and perhaps Swedish and Hither Pomerania should do it. Mainly you need to get Holstein with a large majority of people seeing themselves as Danish.

I'm not confusing the two, in my head i just view an official dominant party state as one where the dominant party enforces its rule and any opposition is a sham; where as I view a single party (one party) state as one where opposition is officially banned so there isn't even the pretense of other parties. Under these assumptions, FNM Canada is neither, that's why I gave it a multi-party de jure outline. Though I can see why some, like yourselves, would find it redundant, especially if you don't separate dominant party states by force from dominant party states by coincidence as I have in my head

I might need a 24th-century orbital habitat's supercomputer to load this image.
I'll see if I can host it somewhere that's easier to view. It'll probably be a couple hours though.
Amazing. Those borders must have taken forever.
So what's after the Thousand Year Summer? I'm thinking Tetsawayouna ships in Alexandria, marching straight for Babylon?

Let's keep the alt-right ethnic cleansing "jokes" out of this thread and off this forum.

Thanks! The borders were a lot of fun to do, really, since with an early POD, you can work from ancient borders, and then make up your own organic evolutions. (This is why i asked for that topographical map a while back: I wanted to have a good overview of the geography.)
As for what's next: I'd prefer to keep that under wraps. In writing the timeline, I have a framing device whereby it's assumed that the reader already knows what happened, so it's never explained in detail. I'm even weighing the pros and cons of either ending the TL just before thing really come to a head, or actually showing a crucial series of dramatic events and then leaving the reader to question what happened afterwards. The first would be like ending a history book in 1914, with a shot ringing out in Sarajevo, and fading to black. The second would involve ending the story with World War One, and leaving the reader to question how the world will be altered (empires dismantled, an era ended, but... what now?).
Either way, I want people to be left with some major questions.
(One thing I can reveal is that the Tetsawayouna is almost certainly not what people think. Even in-universe, people can't agree on its exact nature. Is it an empire, or a religion? Are its agents the enemies of all mankind, or do their doctrines offer the only salvation in a nihilistic world?)

Report any posts there that you have a problem with. Otherwise, this sort of vague complaint comes across as trolling.
So we can't ask what that grey-green state to the NE with the oddly regular subdivisions is?

That's Tenzia. They've gone full rationalist. (Never go full rationalist.)

@Burton K Wheeler he has a point. Polandball is very stereotypical for countries, but I would not go as far as claiming it alt-right perse.

I haven’t seen the “remove kebab” thing reported in the Polandball thread, and anyway, Polandball is about stereotypes and edgy nationalist jokes and the Map Thread is not.
Shit, that is a big image!Second triumvirate is a neat concept for sure, allows for a world that seems to be split into 4 major power block's with them grouping into just two.
Is the POD during or before the second world war?
So Mars has never really kicked terraforming into gear? Thats disappointing.
Seems like the triumvirate are a group of assholes though.
All in all thats an awesome map with great detail throughout the solar system. Great stuff!
Imagine the possibilities!
