This is not your usual KR future scenario.
Who wins, a unusual, albeit multicultural French exile republic into the Caliphate of Algiers, that still wants Paris, versus the Germans, who are now very confused what the hell happened to the south of them.

Haven't seen a combo of the two yet, so working on a KR future scenario combined with a mostly good Euro-African caliphate.
 
What is up with New Israel in Northern Sweden? I get that they are heretics or something but what/how exactly. They probably self identify as Jews but aren't considered such globally.

Idea stolen from SRegan: an even messier Reformation leads to some pretty radical offshoots of protestantism taking root, and in northern Sweden a group arises which converts to a form of "primordial Christianity" which involves acceptance of Jesus as the son of God but the rejection of everything after the first generation of Jesus's disciples as heresy. They self-identify as Jews, the "true" Jews in fact and follow Mosaic law pretty closely. (They welcomed other Jews, but only those who accept the divine nature of Jesus, and had trouble grasping that this is basically a fundamental rejection of Judaism to most Jews: in the last century or so they've finally made it legal for "normal" Jews to become citizens, but they're not exactly getting a flood of immigrants in a world with other options).
 
I'm nowhere near finishing so it will unfortunately miss MOTF 219, but Ive put a lot of effort in, and I'm rather proud of even what's been finished so far

The Shinnecock, Oneida Indian Nation, and a handful of other American Indian Nations join CARICOM, and the wreckage of the US Northeast has become the Northern frontier for many workers and enterprising young folk. Irradiated and full of dead wilderness but also a treasure, with raw resources, recycled goods, and salvaged artifacts flowing down to Port-au-Prince, Belize City, and San Juan to be distributed across the Caribbean, West Africa, and South America. Jointly administered by the US (whose concerns are primarily focused out West with the majority of the population), the region has a variety of folks and factions living within, from Syrian Christians, Pennsylvania Dutch sects, and Ultra-Orthodox Jews living on the fringes of officially occupied cities, to cults, gangs, and anyone else seeking to hide from the law. There are various sorts of travel from canoes and barges (often insulated to protect from radiation still sometimes leaking into the waters), small planes, and a handful of unscrapped railroads, bringing recyclers, kojic acid, and supplies into the worst zones, and bringing out resources like historical artifacts, scrap metal/electronics, and data from sensors and outposts in the region. It's a deadly land, and while recyclers rarely stay for too long, Lenapehoking still remains a place around 560,000 souls, with ~15,000 living in the Exclusion Zones that make up the majority of it's land.

Just FYI, getting started again on the wanks series:

(Still too miffed about losing Mongolia, etc. to start right back at the M's, so I'm skipping ahead to do some Is at first. The second and third maps are a bit tentative right now)
Is Biggest Israel the Messianic Kingdom as hoped by Jews between 200 BCE to 200 CE?
 
Meanwhile, in America:

The divisions are more political/cultural than ethnic here; Missouri (contains its OTL namesake) is your stereotypical breadbasket state, while neighboring Absaroka is more of a Wild West/frontire state.
 
so what are y'alls thought on an Egyptian Congo?

There were Arab traders in it's Eastern fringes OTL, so not undoable. I'd say Egypt needs to be in a relatively safe environment internationally, as the Upper Nile basin is going to need some sort of buy in/pacification for a long term domination of OTL South Sudan and it's Congolese periphery

and started China. The problem with China is that SUCK doesn't have colours for the myriad Chinese ethnicities (Hui, Yi, Zhuang, etc).

If this is purely along actual ethnolinguistic lines it should really look like this (your map mostly doesn't have county subdivisions so it doesn't really have enough detail to show some minority areas)

On the other hand if you want a minority biased-approach it would be more like this:

War of 1812 ends in partial annexation.png


This is a WiP which is in its early stages, with only North America completed. The basic premise is that the United Kingdom and its native allies decidedly win the War of 1812, leading to the creation of the Confederated Tribes of Indiana as a British client state, as well as the annexation of the Louisiana Purchase as a direct British colony and of the US states of Massachussets, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania by the British (this is admittedly very implausible, but whatever). The New Englander states are given joint responsible government, while both Pennsylvania and New York also gain responsible government for themselves, plus half of New Jersey. The Haudenosaunee League had its independence reaffirmed, albeit as a British client state.

After the Napoleonic Wars concluded, the British returned most of Louisiana to the restored Bourbon monarchy in Paris as a gesture of good will, only keeping lands in the north which London designated native protectorates. By the 1850s it was agreed upon by the UK and France that the Great Sioux Confederay would be a joint protectorate of both nations. Also by that time most of the British colonies in continental North America decided to form a federated dominion, called Laurentia, with only Pennsylvania abstaining. The lands of the Hudson Bay Company and the British possession of Oregon would join by 1860, as would formerly Russian Alaska by 1870.

The rump United States relocated its capital further south to Norfolk and created an autonomy for the so-called "Civilized Tribes" south of the Tennessee River. It is a country suffering from great wealth inequality and racial tensions. French Louisiana meanwhile has been prospering thanks to immigration of French, Italian, and Polish people, as well as due to trade with both the native tribes further north and with the strongest non-dominion nation of the continent, Mexico, which has been experiencing the prospering of its northern possessions in recent years.
