I agree, the Iroquois could probably be included, or as an Allied State - Some think their oral traditions were the basis for the US Constitution - see here.

Fantastic work being done here! What's the requirement for contribution? I have some resources that could be added to some sparse regions I spot on there, but I myself am not great at reprojection.
Yeah, we can use the modern method for regnal numbers.
Maybe this timeline's version of the Civil War also includes elements of the Thirty Years War.
The Catalan Civil War being a theater of the Wars of the Roses is a interesting idea. I also think that Leon could be recreated in the aftermath of the Catalan Civil War as a Kingdom for the Trastamaras to rule.
The only requirement is what you can manage. if you have something on the areas we are looking for we would be very grateful.
Hadn't thought of the 30yr war, who would Cromwell align himself with given that he is fighting against Protestants he perceives as Papists. However he was happy to ally with Catholic France to fight Catholic Spain [see last battle of the Civil War] so he will probably ally to his advantage. And of course Protestants supported the Empire in OTL as well.

Cool. I'll note a few resources of interest, though I can't add them to the map. I'll try to take a tackle at the East Indies (adding to @Bob Hope's work, hopefully with a legend). For now, here's a little patch in the form of Chinese kongsi republics:

The borders should look more like those of the Raj, instead of using straight lines.
Maybe Cornwall could ally with some of the more rebellious vassels of France and Castile.
African Great Lakes Agency (Atzyn)
Finished another one. The African Great Lakes Agency:
Labeled:
Will add the full names later as there's multiple titles (they all sort of mean "chiefdom" but they're still distinct). All of these states would act as princely states.
I wasn't very sure how to colour them, but Bunyoro, Tooro, Buganda, Wanga, Kooki, Nyabushozi, Buddu, Karagwe, Urundi, Ruanda and all the statelets in the areas labelled " x Kingdoms" (except the Hutu Kingdoms) have greater autonomy. The rest are tributaries to the bigger kingdoms. Busoga is a confederation; the Federated Busoga Chiefdoms is a union of the smaller chiefdoms within the region and act as one entity in confederal matters, though they're all too small to map out at this size.
I imagine the rest of Uganda becomes a few provinces under 1 presidency, based on the new centralized areas the British established during the time of the Uganda Protectorate (Bukedi, Bugisu, Sebei, Teso and Lango as "Organized Tribal States" and West Nile, Acholi and Karamoja as "Loosely-controlled Tribal States"):
I'll map it out later.

There's no easy way to rearrange them without using lines, unfortunately.
I am currently working on more stuff. Draft 2 should be posted sometime this afternoon.
Although it's quite monotonous, I thought the original one with the British colors looked quite good, mainly because it reminds me of the actual Raj in the Q-BAM.Still working on the colours, how does this look?
Here's draft 2, now with updated colours and more stuff to the south. Still WIP.
Again, please issue constructive criticism and suggestions.

I hope it's okay to share this old draft I had for New England - made it ages ago when I first saw the World Raj:
Also, if I may offer a few thoughts/suggestions:
1. The rivers QBAM looks a bit cluttered when you start adding in borders, and is very straining on the eyes - perhaps we could focus on a QBAM version without rivers - which can they be overlaid with the rivers QBAM at a later date?
2. Could we look at the Guatemala map by @Atzyn as a template for contributions? I.e. a map with attached legend/key. As while there have been some great contributions to AlexRichards original map - what are these states called and how do they relate to each other?
Hope that makes sense
I would like to continue to contribute in the future if that is okay.

I like the looks of these two New Englands. Perhabs we could merge elements of the two into one?I hope it's okay to share this old draft I had for New England - made it ages ago when I first saw the World Raj:

That's a fair point.
@LeinadB93, would you be happy for me to incorporate elements from your map into mine. I'm not 100% happy with New England anyway.

By all means
this is a collaboration after all.Happy to bounce some ideas around if you want? Had some thoughts about the Mid-Atlantic and southern states too...
