Well I must say you've done an excellent job of fleshing out this world. My only gripe is the borders are a bit too light for my liking.

Reposting to avoid the end-of-page curse.A map of the world in 1945 in my TL:
Yes, that is a dead zone in Paris.

Thanks! I might write an actual timeline surrounding it once the school year is over. I guess the borders are a bit light, but I prefer to keep them light to keep them distinct from the natural borders of coastlines and lakes. (I should have colored the rivers in as borders and deleted the rest, which I may do later.)
I think that would also be better.
I like to have my borders a bit lighter than the coastlines, but not so light that they look like they could be some kind of giant federal state.
I would suggest fixing those borders between *Peru and *Gran Colombia as well as *Nicaragua and *Honduras.
I think Japan's sea borders look very odd, and too busy.
I would go over the map with a fine tooth comb and make sure other sea borders are either colored correctly, or removed where only vestiges remain (Cook Islands, Micronesian states, Tuvalu, etm.)
Is China supposed to be 2 toned with no borders, or is it the same issue as those in Latin America?
Anyway, I haven't commented much on your TL's map series, but I am enjoying it.

Hi,
a) I did not want to come off as aggressive and/or offensive. I duly apologise for any offence that I have caused.
b) I followed your advice, Turek, and sigged the games.
But c) This is the most recent map of the map game that I wanted to advertise.
The map of the Co-operative Countries game No. 2, which I have also sigged (in non-bold script) will follow.

Here there is the second map+ a short history of the world. So that people could immediately participate. There are only two parts of Africa, a small bit of China (around Nanjing) and diverse islands left!

Part VII of my Map Series
The Year is 1936.
-The French have remilitirized Lorraine, causing alarm in both London, Berlin, and Barcelona about Deloncle's intentions. They are also not helped by France's reaming, in violation of the Treaty of Potsdam.
-Italy meanwhile, has invaded Ethiopia and annexed it, creating Italian East Africa. In response, America decides to get Liberia into its sphere.
-Meanwhile, Italy has refused to align with any side, but Spain is increasingly getting closer to the French, even signing a pact known as the Madrid-Paris Axis*
-In Asia, Japan has decided to invade China. They take most of Shandong and are beginning to invade Inner Mongolia (infuriating Khan Sternberg in the process)
*Later, the Axis would include Japan.

ASB Fun
In 1905 Ned the Alien Space Bate decideds to shake things up a bit on earth and decides to switch Iran and Austro-Hungary. Along with each comes their respective infrastracture levels, populations and problems. Of course Britain is scared when the German aligned Austria appears next to Britain (though not as much as Russia), along with is massive amounts of oil. Meanwhile in Europe chaos reigns for a few weeks with the Ottomans near going to war on the Russian and British protected Iran. Once things stablize Russia and Germany have carved new influence zones into Persia and both want to get on the countrys good side but as of yet the Shah has wisely (or maybe not so wisely) stayed neutral in the affairs of Europe.
The year is now 1916 and a few days before the start of WW1 over disputes between German and Russian influence zone in Persia.

It's from my TL. And since you're not a communist, you, like most other OTL Americans, would either be oppressed, a rebel or living the sweet life(AKA your normal life) in Russia or South Africa.
But Russia isn't.
In Latin America, the northern part is occupied by the United People's Republic of America(communist America) while the southern part is free, for now. They will be officially separated later, though. And the Chinese Civil War, between the (light green) Russian-backed Republicans and (dark green) Qing Empire is going on, which is why China is two toned. In southern Mexico, which will eventually become independent, American-backed communist rebellions are occurring, which is why they're red. And thanks.
