Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

[Iserlohn]

To bring this to a productive discussion... Apparently in 2011 there was some genuine discussion about a renewed confederation between Peru and Bolivia. It wouldn't have given Bolivia a direct coastline, but it would've been something.

I hate to double-post, but I just saw this fake proposal in response to the Turkish campaign in Northern Syria by the German satirical party Die Partei on Facebook and just wanted to share it here.

The text reads: The Kurdish Question? Three state solution!

You mean to tell me that's not a real map of anatolia?


My time at r/imaginarymapscj was all for nothing!

Confirmed as not Russian and potentially Bulgarian; the name for Belarus is written differently in those two languages.

I stand by my earlier point though, that the language of a map is not necessarily the same as that of the group running the campaign. It merely acts as an indicator of the intended audience.

It's not Bulgarian either - that would be "Беларус". But despite Russian predominance in Belarus, the Belarussian version of the name is officially used, so Google maps use that.

Wonder how long until Turkish government propaganda picks this up and accuses the EU of plotting to destroy Turkey?

Say hello to the Republic of Mahabad, a short-lived Kurdish state which only existed from 22 January to 15 December 1946. Perceived by most Western countries as a Soviet puppet state and unpopular with many Kurdish leaders, the Republic was eventually abandoned by the Soviets as part of a commitment to withdraw from northwestern Iran, leading to it's destruction.

I could see an alt history where Mahabad survives to the present day and Autonomous Azerbaijan is annexed to the Azerbaijani SSR.

Another interesting thing to see might be the recreation of the - or perhaps the survival of the original - Soviet Republic of Gilan/Persian SSR

A combination of Iranian separatist movements.

Baluchistan should be included too, they have a fairly strong separatist movement

I like that the Kazakh border is still recognisable from all that.

This reminds me of the checkersboard map proposal of France after the French revolution. https://images.app.goo.gl/cXEvbGr5Sh61P1TYA
