That's a lot of countries in North America, @fashbasher! I have my doubts about the feasibility of the POD (building up immunity demands lasting contact, and thus demands a lasting and quite 'contact-heavy' Vinland... which is ironically not on your map) but the outcome is very interesting.

Im doing a German East Africa/Tanzania-semi-wank as my last project until probably mid-may. I'm pretty happy with my progress and the scenario so far but have trouble deciding how far I want to push out the borders. So I made this little map as an overview of possible borders.

Pretty much settled on Portugese Nyasaland, Sansibar and Eastern Katanga but otherwise I'm pretty undecided and would appreciate some input:)

I would say yes to all of the green areas. I like the look of Katanga much better without the OTL panhandle, so i would say all of nothing on Katanga.
That bit of southern Madagascar would be an interesting quirk but I'm sceptical of how likely it would be to stay united to german east Africa post independence. On the other hand an aggressive Madagascar claiming the region could be exactly enough to scare them out of wanting to reunify the island. Definitely do Zanzibar and southern Uganda though.

I like this.

Is the Queen still alive? Who's running the UK at this point?

Will they be a squeal?

I'm surprise LBJ won the White House, let alone Goldwater. Seem morel likely politics would be very chaotic and the Democratic Party in the Hole over the War.

Queens alive UK is not something I've given any thought into but currently, Labour has the majority

maybe

It was a national unity ticket the Democrats and Republicans decided that in order to prevent any chaotic politics they needed unity so yeah voter turnout was in the low 40s for the 64 election though

Windsor is about 25 miles outside of central London, though only 6 from Heathrow. Not sure exactly whether that's still within survivable distance, though HM may well have been evacuated to the underground redoubt anyway.

She was a few hundred feet underground with the rest of the British government

This is somewhat off topic, but I feel bad for Matt Furie. I mean, he had one of his characters hijacked by the alt-right against his will, and he has no way to stop it.

He tried to reclaim Pepe but ultimately decided to canonically kill the character off. It's safe to say that Pepe's pretty entirely claimed by the alt-right. So yeah, let's leave garbage memes off of the map thread

Good idea, I wasn't that much of a fan of it anyways.

Well there is one thing we can do, use it regardless of its current affiliation with the alt right so we can try to move it away from the idea that it's purely an alt right meme so everyone can feel free to use it again

So I made a "what if world borders had to be drawn by me" or something like that. The picture is a full Q-BAM which due to size limitations can't upload here. So I will leave a link to a DA page and a preview here. LINK HERE.

-Also what do you guys use for making your maps? I have been using Paint.net for the layers but its text function is awful, you can not edit after you deselect it.

Personally I use Gimp as text is added as a layer so can be adjusted as needed.

Question; would there be enough horses in the early years- how long a breeding project to make the trails viable?

i don't fully understand. Pepe might be used by the alt right as well, but it's used by non-right-wingers as well. so why no pepes?
If you'd declare pepe as an alt right meme then you just would play into their hands because they want it to be their meme although it was/is a normal meme like most others.

(I think we should continue this in chat)
