I get both were settled by southerners and are in the Great Plains, but the circumstances of their settlement are so different I dunno how it ever came to be as a cliche. All the more so you can argue a bulk of Oklahoma's population is juuust close enough to Arkansas to be 'Ozarker' in culture as well. I suspect a cross of Oklahoma being west of the 98th meridian visually to keep a rump USA nice and tidy as well as the said southerners/Great Plains culture stuff.

Needs more Inca.
Made a Worlda Version of TheMexicanHistorian's "Most Cliche Map Possible" from Reddit, a collection of the most commonly-used cliches in AH maps all stuck together in one map

I just noticed the Amogus in Turkestan. Is that an image error, a joke, or just how bad the Aral Sea has become?
I'm holding out for a "Free State of Miller" timeline

Basically this stems from scenarios being either 1) balkanized X 2) greater X or for former OTL colonies 3) colonized X and the three overlapping.
For India you could combine the three, with a League of Indian Nations including the entire raj with tier 1 and tier 2 nations, and with the tier 1 nations collectively wielding 1 seat in the *UN and some of the tier 1 nations having separate seats/embassies, and some nations acting as British dominions (see 3))
The Tripartite Alliance that featured 1) stronger multinational institutions and 2) more social progress in corners is worth reading even with butterfly nets and its early 2000s non-AH.com format

Lake Chad is dying too. It looks pitiful in satellite photos. The level of water has decreased by about 90%I guess it's a joke; the Aral Sea has become worse, indeed.
It would have bene really tragicomic if last/biggest remnant of Lake Chad was within Cameroon or Nigeria instead of Chad.
The dread I'm feeling while reading this is within no bounds. Sad to see so many important lakes dry out.
Feel free to hit me up with more cliches for my map. Right now, I'm at 69, including geological cliches like Doggerland and Zealandia.
At least the northern portion has recovered quite a bit, to the point where Aralsk can become a port again in the near future. The rest is left to its fate, unfortunately.I guess it's a joke; the Aral Sea has become worse, indeed.

Map of Moldovan administrative divisions after a hypothetical reintegration of Transnistria.
I used the SVG from Wikipedia and based the divisions in Transnistria off the claimed district borders. Small changes include the Dubasari district, which was altered to be the Transnistrian side plus the southern part of the Moldovan side, with the rest of the Moldovan side becoming the new Cocieri district. The districts making up former Transnistria are grouped into the Transnistria Autonomous Territorial Unit, similar to Gaugazia, though it is still comprised of multiple districts.
I maintained the Cocieri district since there is a strong connection between both sides of the dniester river by the bend, and giving the whole bend back to the Dubasari district (right bank) would break such a connection. I considered merging the new Cocieri district into Orhei, but I think status quo would prevail and they'd just change one border.
edit: aaand I just noticed a mistake... I put Ribnitsa, with an s, even though i used the Romanian t with a tail
