I take it by the blue in southern England that Frankish culture had a greater impact on Britain, or a romance language somehow survived in the south.
i mean you could just use a different color from the other borders to show it's undefined. having to deal with the blur seems a bit...cumbersome.So I've started work on an Equal Earth OTL 1651 Basemap that people can use for their own work, because we need more Equal Earth Maps!
So far I've done the gunpowder empires and the British Isles. I'm using blurred outlines because the idea of a strict border in those locations is anachronistic. Instead, they were imperial-feudal polities that exerted transitory control over their peripheries that was modulated by fickle vassals and tributaries.

Keep up the work, but China is very wrong, though you may still be working on it?All right, the people have spoken! We will move away from blurred lines for now back to a more traditional portrayal. I have also decided to move back to a more traditional color scheme.
I’m curious to know if you’ve done any more on this.Cover/tribute to Baconheimrs Lines in the Sand aka "Tordesillaspunk", WIP no. 2

The transition between the Qing and the Ming is still undergoing a bloody conflict, and the Manchu forces have yet to fully secure China. Southern Ming and their allies still hold territory, roughly in the areas of southern Shaanxi, Chongqing, Guangxi, and western Guangdong. Sun Kewang owns the two provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou who has his own state with the Qin seal, and sort of has a pseudo-alliance with the Southern Ming. Koxinga owns much of the coast Jiangnan. The Qing also do not own the Qinghai lake and own much of outer manchuria and inner mongolia. And the native Gāoshān people still own Formosa, not China.
Not sure when and if I finish it, however, at least most important parts are done or at least WIP - Spanish and Portugal empires, Ming China, "Turko-Persia" as prime islamic power, Greater Korea... Anatolia, central/northern Asia or middle India shall be edited a bitI’m curious to know if you’ve done any more on this.
