Poland is still there, that is Lehistan. The Ottomans conquered Belarus.
Well, Lithuania back then. The Grand Duchy was rather large. Seems they remembered to not have any of East Prussia as German or Russian, so there is that, though.Poland is still there, that is Lehistan. The Ottomans conquered Belarus.
What is worse is I just realized they labeled all of Venice's non-geographically Italian territory as being Belonging to Bosnia-Herzovigina. Which neither existed back then, nor has even the slightest overlap in territory with this.
There's a patern here. I'm beginning to suspect foul play by the carthographer.
Considering that the 'kebab' jokes are frowned upon, I think Polish equivalents would be as well.
Or, given the location of the according black dot, the city of Venice itself is located east of the Istrian peninsula.
Though it would be an amusing reason for centuries of Austrian anger at Venice (don't think there was any IOTL) for pulling up stakes/gondola Poles and blocking Fiume fomrmthe Adriactic due to a city being moved in front of it.
Poland and Belarus are the same colour.
This is really bothering me.
Also what is that water at the top of Russia? If it’s the Gulf of Ob I’m going to throw up.
I doubt the Armenians are exactly thrilled by the coloring either.
