As tradition dictates, Africa is always ‘neutral territory’ or part of a European empire in AH.

Japan is still there, just moved further.
I'm more concerned about the eastern Med.
Wierdly enough, my first thought on seeing this was a TL where Novgorod won the fight in Russia, the PLC is the primary power in Eastern Europe and the Stans are part of the Turkish cultural orbit.
(And the black sea got drained by Aliens)
What they effectively did was taking one of the shittiest world maps that exists (we already got several instances of that map in this thread, the lack of eastern med is a dead giveaway that it is that very map) and then took the outline of Russia from a completely different map projection and slapped it in some kind of best fit onto the basemap.
The only question is has the history channel map makers that awful or created they that map in full knowledge that it is incredibly wrong-
I guess there is only one answer to that: Aliens.
To soothe the mind, have a map from a childrens' book.
Unified Ireland, and Russia (less Kaliningrad) and the Low Countries have either been flooded or abducted by aliens.

I dunno, Portugal is melting and Switzerland ate Liechtenstein, and Austria's panhandle
also, Hungary is looking rather... pointy.
IMO the real controversy in this frame from Abominable is that 50% of the Philippines was Thanos-snapped away.

As was all of Japan, and Ache was severed from the rest of Sumatra.
Huh, I didn't know that the Infinity Gauntlet was powerful enough to erase geography as well.IMO the real controversy in this frame from Abominable is that 50% of the Philippines was Thanos-snapped away.
Thanos was able to throw a moon at the Avengers in the Battle of Titan, and that was with only four infinity stones, and was able to wipe out half the animal biomass* of the universe with six. Destroying some landmasses should be trivial by comparison.
*Or whatever. I don't think they ever confirm whether plants, fungi, bacteria etc. were erased.
Not to mention the nine-dash line, which, aside from the obvious, is also an eyesore.IMO the real controversy in this frame from Abominable is that 50% of the Philippines was Thanos-snapped away.
This raises the interesting question (which incidentally I expect I'm not the first to ask) of how Thanos determined which species would be snapped and which would not be.
