Spain claimed land all the way up to Alaska, though.

Looks like the Adams-Onís Treaty line to me, or at least close enough. Sure, there's a case to be made that a lot of that territory wasn't effectively controlled, but it's what the US and Spain agreed was the border.Also it annoys me Mexico managed to snag chunks of Oregon, Idaho, and Wyoming it never held during Spanish or independent times in this map, so at least be accurate in your attempts to cause historical controversy.
I believe @Umbric Man meant that the northern border of the map shown is a little far north, even for the Adams-Onis Treaty line. And I have to agree, just by eyeballing it.
Not really a proposal and certainly not a war aim but it still fits best here:
What?? Who proposed/made a map where Germany (and on top of that: post-1945 Germany!) annexes not only Austria, but Switzerland, the Benelux nations, Croatia, Slowenia, and is "on course of annexing" Ukraine, Bosnia, Serbia and Montenegro, Albania, Macedonia, Moldova and Georgia? Why would Germany do this? And... wouldn't Germans then become a minority in their own nation? And why is Kosovo a "lawless zone"?

But it's not OC either, so maybe the political cartoon thread over on Chat?Ehhh....sorry, but have to disagree. It doesn't "fit best here". It fits much better in Map Thread XVIII because it's just a map. It is as you rightly noted, not a proposal and "certainly not a war aim", so it shouldn't be here.
I just realized, but they used the modern borders for Sonora here, rather than having the Gadsden Purchase.

There is no way anyone seriously suggested calling a geographical region "Dampieria"
