It seems that since they tried to oppose the carving of China they were excluded from it...
Now, the real crisis will be Russia deciding to carve the Ottomans like, well, a Turkey.

Very nice chapter. We definitely need a map.
If China ever recover from this two centuries of humiliation, under a truly nationalist government, they are going to be livid about this. Like Nazism level of anger.

The Anglo-American/Nazi War by @CalBear. China there ends up under an insane regime CalBear has compared to a "giant North Korea" which seeks to kill all non-Chinese with biological weapons.
I guess I could make a map. It wouldn't be a super detailed map like you'd get elsewhere (I use a HOI4 base map), but I could get the job done.Unfortunately so do I
The response seems to have been pretty positive, so I'll get plugging away at the map. I'll do The Americas tonight, as that'll be pretty much OTL, before looking more into it tomorrow. I'll post it here and hopefully @Onkel Willie will threadmark it.
Is Ireland still part of the UK? I'm assuming it is, but I'm not completely sure.

I did The Americas last night (the easy part, as they're pretty much OTL), and I'm working on Europe right now. The map should be done in the next couple of days. I'll send a preliminary version to @Onkel Willie, gets any potential errors sorted out, and then post the full version here. It'll be up to 1920.
UPDATE: Europe, Arabia and Africa are complete. I'll get on to Asia and Oceania in the coming days.
2ND UPDATE: I decided to finish off Russia, and good Lord is TTL's Russia massive (as if Russia wasn't already massive in the first place). The title of "The Russian Century" certainly wasn't lying.

Since the Great War ended already in February 1916 there might not be Easter Uprising. So separatism has not so high support as in OTL. But Brits probably has still difficulties to keep Ireland. But I guess that now things are quiet peaceful compared to OTL.
Amazing timeline which Alexander II has survived his assasinations but glad that I guess there will be a reversed cold war.
Dmocratic capitalist Russia vs. authotarian socialist United States? Possible since socialism might has better chances since Russia never go as socialist and since Eugene V. Debs not face troubles with government he might has more time push things forward even if he never become POTUS.
How about if U.S. president survives assassination attempt which prevented Theodore Roosevelt from becoming president?
Avoided MicKinley's assassination? Perhaps. In other hand it seems that there were same presidents in USA until 1916 election. There has been already mentioned presidents Roosevelt and Wilson.
The Russian Century - 1920
I just realized that I forgot Portuguese Timor and some Indian Ocean islands. For that matter, I also accidentally swapped Dutch and Portuguese Timor. However, I think it's good enough to muster for now.

Not that great map must say. There is some border lines speciality on internal borders totally whong and some are quiet anachronist. Some border lines wouldn't are exist yet long time. Perhaps you should take watch 1914 map and make map based on that.
But this still gives quiet good view about the world.
Yugoslavia will be exremely pissed. Being landlocked nation not going to do them happy.
Bulgaria hardly is happy too. Well, Balkans is just waiting new explosion.
China is going to hate Westerners really much. Humiliations since First Opium War ending to Scramble of China. China is not indeed going to be happy.
