Haven't been much in the mood for write-ups of late, but I managed to crank out this map. Really happy with how it came out. POD Roughly during the Thirteen Years' War.

Lovely map! However, I - as one of the first cities - saw "Tuchel". And then I had hoped (in vain) for cities named "Klopp", "Löw", "Heynckes", "Veh", etc.

Ah, yes
The Teutonic Knights were well renown for their prestigious football team, some players were even so decorated they had entire towns renamed to reflect them.

Someone explain Christburg then....

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it

This is really cool. Both the ultra-monarchist world and the hypothetical ultra-republican world seem very interesting. I must note that I don't think monarchism or even anti-republicanism is by definition bad (and indeed, there is clear criticism of 'ultras' even in the monarchist world; I'd like to know what the place is like). On the other hand, it's kind of funny that the in-universe mapmaker considers his scenario to be evidently evil and scary. Assuming for the moment that the revolutionaries didn't go full Robespierre, the idea of those independent Scottish and Irish states (the latter even nicely confederal, yay) seems rather attractive...

My initial thoughts are that constitutional monarchy is considered the standard. A strong figurehead is considered necessary, though elections are important as well. Ultraroyalists are in favor of strong state churches, weakened legislatures, and more active monarchs. They are generally disliked by the center and left, and are somewhat comparable to a long-standing alt-right.

Regarding the democracy world, Orientoalleghenia It is about as aristocratic as the OTL US at the same time, though more expansionist and active in world affairs, and out to destroy monarchy. To someone who believes England and English-descended settlers should dominate most of the world, having groups active opposed to the monarchy in control is a terrifying thought. I haven’t made up my mind entirely on it, but my gut feeling is that the European states will be rather moderate, at least compared to OTL France at the height of its revolutionary excesses.

So it's from Monarchy World?

No. I don’t exactly know what Monarchy World is, but it is from a similar timeline, assuming that’s a world where monarchism remains dominant.

I swear my next map will have cities named Rodgers, Hundley, Flynn, Favre, Majkowski...

Here's what might be the final version of the Revolution! world map. Bask in the glory of a balkanised SE Asia, China and Russia that would put Kaiserreich to shame!

Looks good but what is the reason Greenland is divided?

Third Revision of my Azur Lane/Kancolle ultimate AU crossover scenario.

You're going to make an write up someday?.

Looks good but what is the reason Greenland is divided?

The British occupied Greenland after the Scandinavians went Communist, leading to Keetawin getting Greenland after winning their independence from Borelia (TTL's sort-of Canada) in the 1990s. The Inuit state later sold the Scandinavians a portion of Greenland, mostly so they could have easy access to the new Arctic trade routes, but there were also cultural and historical claims too.

I think you made a graphical error with New Zealand, it seems to be coloured the same as Australia, which obviously is a horrendous mistake that must be rectified immediately.

Also, what is the brown country on the border of Russia and Kazakhstan, near-ish the Idel-Ural State?

Kaiserreich?

http://kaiserreich.wikia.com/wiki/The_Kaiserreich_Wiki

It's a mod for a real time strategy game called Hearts of Iron. Germany wins WW1 basically and the world is a mess afterwards. Note, it aint the most plausible of alt-hist narratives as having a fun chaotic scenario for gameplay purposes tends to drive lore, so you get Communist Britain and France, a super powered German Empire and an American Civil War.

I already did the writeup about it but it's in my native language.

Ah mobiyiuz.....I think I was the person who convinced him to join the board a while back. He was raging over the site's policy I think, possibly also a hatred for KitFisto, not sure about the second.

That thing over site policy? The guy went utterly batshit crazy.

Despite the fact that I actually like his California TL and give him at least some level of respect for it, I still don't get his obsession with me.

Haha, very funny. Kiwis are just Aussies with funny accents, better rugby players and a political system that isn't as fucked as ours.

Also, what is the brown country on the border of Russia and Kazakhstan, near-ish the Idel-Ural State?

It's a Volga German state that's trying to reassert a separate German identity in the face of Kazhak and Russian migration to the area, sorta like OTL Austria in a way.

If nothing else, I LOVE the color scheme.

Should I make a map where Europe remains the dominant power well into the 21st century, or should I make a map in a world where Demi-Gods a la Percy Jackson actually exist?

First one.

Speaking of map ideas, I'm thinking of making a series where I either wank or screw five countries from a random nation generator. Anyone interested in that?
