Pretty much 99% of Jew in the world lives in judea, at first all of Europe was left behind during the 19th century and the 20th saw the same thing happen in he rest of the world. Most of those who live outside judea are still judean citizens that work abroad or military personnel and their families stationed abroad.

Good point, but what you have to remember is that at this time period most powers that were in prime position to colonise America where not gonna let many Jews go, didn't they want to make the land a Christian one.
Actually, America (the terrestrial version anyway) prior the Third Mexican War is a bloated overextended empire with a decaying central government, mass unemployment, and an almost neo-aristocracy resulting from the rise of general purpose robots in the 2070s. Mexico has been chipping away at America's global military presence partly due to their use of cyberwarfare, and also due to their ability to leverage a much more formalized neo-feudalist system to stand up allies with regionalist/separatist leaders around the world.
The war is only won by the United States because its largely autonomous colonies on Mars and the outer planets were able to send a huge wave of reinforcements that tipped the balance of power in the Americans favor. After that, the Colonies were brought into the Union (where they had considerably more economic and political influence than their terrestrial cousins) and functionally conquered a sizable portion of the planet, while integrating the terrestrial economy under their own. Mars did to Earth in 2139, what America did to Europe in 1943.
The Second Renaissance isn't an America-wank story... its Martian-wank.
I've just remembered good old Hearts of Iron 2 days. I still remember a lot of AAR and timelines...
I'm surprised there wasn't any HOI2 color schemed WorldA map except this.
The tricky part is allowing a few thousand Jews to be expulsed to the Azores, since it was considered a part of mainland portugal and not a colony (where there were some isolated exemples go jews being sent to, mostly in Sao Tome and cape verse).
Once there I could see the catholic inhabitant refusing them or discriminating against them and the governor changing his mind on it so that they would decide to continue westward, the Azores are after all in the middle of the Atlantic and fishermen there had the knowledge that North America existed years before Columbus went to the Americas, even if it happens before cabot’s Expedition they may decide to continue to the west from some fishermen’s rumours.
As I said before the beauty of it is that it doesn’t need any Jewish immigration from Europe, natural growth alone would be enough, and nobody back on Portugal would know about it for a good decade, this community can thrive for several decades alone, enough for it to reach a population in the dozen of thousands.
A world that is blue. Inspired by EU4 map color changing posts from Reddit. I hope the meme comes to AH.com.
In this scenario, Norse England (Angliland) teams up with Monarchist France and the Prussian Empire to take over Europe.
Belgium, Luxembourg, Basque, Lithuania, Livonia, Moldova, Dnister Commune, and others have stood up to resist the Blue Wave.

hey that's a really neat outlining effect you have going on there, i like it. it does look kind of time-consuming though
Answering your questions
How does a technocratic monarchy work?
A technocratic monarchy has both a king and a technocratic assembly. There is a fine balance of power between the king (appointed by noble electors), who has executive powers, and the assembly, which has legislative powers and whose president controls the military. Generally freer than either technocracies or monarchies.
What are the main royal houses in Europe?
The Habsburgs still remain in Austria. They also are the current dynasty in many of the German states and Luxembourg. England and Hanover both are ruled by the House of Hanover and have strong diplomatic ties, since the English monarchy resided in Hanover during their time in exile. The Hanoverian monarchy also reigns over Ontario. Most other countries have local dynasties, or no real dynasties at all (Switzerland, Netherlands), just processions of kings. Since there are few remaining hereditary monarchies, some dynasties have lost the support of their electors and have been removed from power.
What appears to be the U.S.?
The UEA (United Empire of America) is a confederated electoral monarchy. In an elective monarchy, electors (mostly nobility) elect the next king after the death of the previous king. They also can remove the king with a supermajority vote. The UKA has three major royal Houses, House Rockefeller in the north, House Potomac in the middle and House Charleston in the south. Ironically, House Charleston doesn’t actually control their old home. The Confederate Regional Party, controls South Carolina, and most kings of that state are affiliated with it. Many states in the UEA including Manitoba and Massachusetts, although they all are subservient to the federal government. The federal government is composed by an “Electoral College” which elects the king and can remove him (by supermajority only). it has limited legislative ability although it does have some budgetary powers. The “parties” of the UEA are the mostly big tent and broad, since most politicians are less accountable (and less partisan) electors who come from nobility. The major parties are in order of size: Conservative Party (C), Progressive Monarchist Party (P), National Royalist Bloc (N), Autonomist Association (A), Elective Compromise Party (E), Confederate Regional Party (D), Bloc Français (F), United Technocratic Front (T). The federal government is run by the King, currently George III (the irony is not lost on him) of House Charleston (C), from North Carolina. He was elected by a coalition of the Conservatives and National Royalists securing him a slim majority.

Questions & Criticisms are welcome.
A coastline layer, for one, really helps the contrast between land and water. A little hard to understand this map when there are border layers. If coastline/border layers were all left untouched without black dividing lines, there wouldn't be such an inconsistent design.

It was actually a fairly big thing a good while back; I'm not sure if I still have any of the maps on my computer, but I'll take a look.
Fairly straightforward: Trace a continent of choice (on a "globe" projection, if you want a more "wikibox" style), fill it with gray, trace the borders with a white stroke. If you want to add fill for countries, convert the strokes to paths, merge them all into one object, "subtract" the resulting object from the continent, and "break" the difference apart. You should get a number of smaller objects from the big continent you've just traced.
That being said, the whole experience (as is mapmaking in general, really) is tedious and time-consuming, and requires familiarity with .svg-capable programs such as Inkscape or Illustrator.
Amongst others, GIMP allows you to select an enclosed area, shrink that area by a set number of pixels, and therefore allows you to fill the area around it (or within it).
