…so Antioch does not, in fact, have a diocese in the Greek Orthodox Church of Antioch?
The British were the last to fall in Europe (outside of Russia, Sweden and the Papal States) There was no real Republicanist rebellion in the UK, it being the most democratic of the European state. Ireland had rebelled however and joined the European Confederation (the European superstate) as result, the EC invaded across the channel. This, in combination with a massive socialist uprising in Scotland and Northern England spelled the end for the UK proper.
The HRE-in-exile is located in Southwest Africa.
Long Middle State in North America is “Kansas”. Made up of an alliance of British farmers and native Americans, both of whom hated British rule. They considered Louisiana, but Louisiana proper rebelled and joined the Francophone Texas Republic.
Maps for the War of the Spanish Succession in my TL. In Part #14: Moot Point, the war in Europe begins to slow down, while things heat up in the North America.
The grey colony where Georgia should be is New Modena, an English Penal Colony that has now happily welcomed the French. Dotted means claimed, but unsettled, though things are roughly drawn. Post-War will finally see far better and more defined borders. New York is also in revolt.

The seat moved to Damascus in the 1340s and never went back. I suppose it would be a bit silly to have a Metropolitan in Antioch if the Patriarch is in a different city.
How did those islands come to be named after Oranges (Chinese Apples to use the exact translation)?
Liking the update enormously!
A map of the year 1894 in a map game I've been playing against myself over email since 2013 on and off. The POD was in 1861.
Why not join the *United States? (And I'm not sure how you get a European farmer - plains tribes alliance, since buffalo herds and farms aren't really compatible).

I have a question. Long long time ago before I joined I saw on the Map Thread a world Raj or something like that. Is it done? Is it still unfinished? where can I see it?

Pff. Some sort of alliance of English speaking settler colonies that revolted from British rule? I'd like to see that.
The linguistic situation of Azalaia and Narsenia those days.
Saxish is a Teutonical language, and I've presented it not as one big blob, but as different dialects [Western, Eastern, Black Country, Cambrish, Narseno-]
- Western: the "normal" Saxish, and the one Lagellians understand best out of them all.
- Eastern: Basically imagine exaggerated Northern English, and you have it.
- Black Country: Very much influenced by both immigrants and the Cambrish.
- Cambrish Saxish: Very much not the "national language" of Camber, it's surprisingly normal.
- Narseno-Saxish: Basically Hiberno-English.
And there's Albis too, which is basically Scots.
Sakstaal is a Teutonical language too, and it has diverged far from Saxish. Centuries living in isolation on a far-flung continent will do that to you. A language revival has brought it back to the islands.
Cambrish is a Caletic language albeit one with considerable influence from Remanic. It is the national language of the Kingdom of Camber and despite immigration to South Camber from Saxish-speakers, it still maintains a majority of citizens speaking it. There was once another Cambrish language, the extinct Remanic "Asealig", which persisted up until the 11th century as the language of the elite.
Narsenian is the "official" language of the Republic of Narsenia, as well as being recognised as a "significant" language in East Narsenia. It is not in good form those days, with cities mainly speaking Narseno-Saxish. It is a Caletic language that has a lot in common with Galeic and peculiarly enough, less with Cambrish [linguistics think that there was a "Northern" Caletic mainly based in Gallica and which has a few survivors but the most prominent is Cambrish, and a "Southern" Caletic that evolved to Narsenian and Galeic.]
Galeic is the other language of Alba. It is in fairly dire straits those days, with numbers plummeting and fears that it would die off in this century. Not helping matters is that nationalists champion Albis instead of Galeic.
Humvi is the language of the Humvees, aka the inhabitants of the Isle of Hum. It's a Caletic language with a lot in common with Galeic, up to the point where "Humvi Galeic" is an acceptable alternative name.
Narseno-Nabitean is a very peculiar thing instead. The Sultanate of Bung was a Crastrian sultanate, and successive sultans pushed hard for education in Nabitean and conversion to Crastre. Hence the Narsenian language was replaced by a dialect of Nabitean. Despite centuries under Azalish and then Narsenian rule, the language persists, although it has a very, very strong Narsenian-y flavour.

Finally, France acquires its natural borders at the Urals.
It was the made by @Alex Richards i think. Very well made, he researched each area so the borders were not arbitrary.

Many western farmers were extremely independent-minded. They did not like the oppressive nature of the British colonial government, and the other major power that shared this view was noneother than the Natives of the region. Their co-existence is tense, especially in the southern portions, but they're extremely libertarian minded, and borrow alot from ideas like the Iroquious confederacy. They refuse to join the Union of Michigan (The United States) because the U.S. is much more (OTL American) federalist in nature. They even have a figurehead Duke as the Duke of Michigan. The two nations are allied, and while talks of a union have been debated, the government structures of the two nations are too different (Kansas being set up almost like the Hansa)
Ah, true. But the capital city is actually in Munich.
Finished the map of Renaissance-y Eastern Hennodia/Western Lagellania. Colonisation is a-pace.
And here's a challenge for you. Guess what that thing marked '?????' is.

Based on shape alone it can only be an ISOT'd, landlocked, Cyprus!
