A map of the Avatar World right before the Battle of Zaofu.

Much is speculation and made up of my own intimate of LOK. This is most evident in the islands to the west of the United Republic and north of the Southern Water Tribe.

Omashu i am assuming is a De facto member of the Earth Empire. We don't here anything of Omashu being absorbed by the EE. But we saw on the map kuvira used in E1, as discussed in the LOK thread, that it had yet to be taken. Then we hear more recently that Zaofu is the last Earth Empire territory to be taken (Except for the UR of course!). SO this explains my reasoning.

Credit to Emperor of New Zealand for the base map. Also if you do not approve I CAN take it down. :)

I also have a map for the Height of the fire nation during ATLA. I probably will not post it unless someone suggests I should. I'm not as proud of it as I am with this one. But I'd say it is my second best Avatar map.

Those don't look like the canon internal borders of the Earth Kingdom/Empire. Also I believe Zaofu is fairly close to Omashu, at least somewhere South West of Ba Sing Se.

Could map effort though.

I was going by someone elses map of where Zaofu was... But I am for a fact sure Omashu is where it is supposed to be. But yes I did know that. I edited the area north of Omashu a little better to fit how it looked on the photo in the LOK thread but ended up leaving it more like how Emperor Of New Zealand had it because I was getting no where..

I guess we can just go on ahead and assume that after Kuvira took over she redrew the borders a bit?

Also I like the idea of Zaofu being where it is on this map. If it were close to Omashu then that area seems like it'd be incredibly crowded to me. The Swamp is directly to the south. The desert directly to the East. It would have to be directly north of it if that were true... Suyin also noted that when she built Zaofu the area was pretty much unsettled when she found the area she wanted to build it.

Also; South west of Basing-Se is Chibu and the serpents pass.
 
How many of these were based on OTL Blythe's own ideas?
OTL Blueshirt goals:
To promote the reunification of Ireland.
To oppose Communism and alien control and influence in national affairs and to uphold Christian principles in every sphere of public activity.
To promote and maintain social order.
To make organised and disciplined voluntary public service a permanent and accepted feature of our political life and to lead the youth of Ireland in a movement of constructive national action.

OTL Ailtirí na hAiséirghe goals:
Criminalization of English language.
Basically Blueshirt's, except with more religion.

Ernest Blythe had ties with both groups.
 
Why is there a random splach of USA in Central Asia? Why is Albania, Germany, and Italy all territories?

Toward the end of WWII, a exausted Russia turned on America, America got real dang greedy and took the places it wanted (The Axis powers are taking it extra hard, they're territories so America and do what it wants away from public eyes). They took the central asian Nations for the Hell of it.
 
How do bits of the UK exist in Africa when the US annexed Britain?:confused:

When Westminster realized what was going down they where quick to save the crown at all costs, even if that means the last vestige of British glory is the United Kingdom of Rhodesia, Nigeria, Malta and Cyprus (Nigeria, Malta and Cyprus all opted out of the European Community of Africa, a very nearly federalized system)
 
Islamic end times prophecies also prominently feature 'the Romans' (IOTL oft-genericised to mean 'the West'), so I'd expect the Caliphate to be monomaniacally focused on Romania.

Interesting.

"If Britain wins, we lose; if Germany wins, we are lost" - Benito Mussolini

I sort of forgot I was working on this, and decided to finish it today after finding the Inkscape files. Although it uses the 'a bayonet made of milk' quote, this is not actually A Bayonet Made of Milk, an idea I still want to develop some day.

Some nice ideas there.
I'd love to see Carry Me East, Mad Eyes, and Colossus (a Leviathan reference? :) )

Instead, it's a moderate Italy-wank based on a recent game of Darkest Hour;

A handsome map. Wasn't Albania supposed to be annexed outright? But I suppose that's something that easily could be changed by circumstances.

Too tired to explain, ask questions if you have any.

Do you think cherry blossoms dream of flying on the backs of cranes?

You meant about the map...well, this is awkward. I guess I'll save my next question about the mysterious origins of babies for later.

How did Australia come out unscathed by whatever the U.S. is doing?
 
yoooooooo I love this.

Instead, it's a moderate Italy-wank based on a recent game of Darkest Hour; the Republicans win the Spanish Civil War, leaving Mussolini fuming but still occupying the Balearics, which he promptly annexes for his trouble. In 1938, despite the mounting cost of turning Ethiopia into a workable colonial possession, Il Duce decides to go for broke and make an alliance with Bulgaria to attack and dismember Yugoslavia. France is focused on Hitler's re-armament of Germany and does not support the Little Entente once Hungary makes it clear it has no interest getting in on the action. This campaign concludes with a lightning strike into Greece using motorised infantry (motorbikes). France and Britain plan to declare war but are pre-empted by conflict between Germany and Poland. Mussolini gives reassurances to Britain and France that he does not intend to join the war. After the fall of France, however, he sends troops to occupy Nice, Savoy, Corsica, Tunisia and Djibouti. The Free French aren't happy about this but Britain is happy that Germany's puppet is being shown up as incapable of keeping control of its territory. In 1944, with Germany halting American and Soviet forces and turning initial advances into a WW1-esque meatgrinder, Mussolini offers to open another front against Hitler; his price is the territories he is already occupying as well as sphere of influence in Austria. Worried the Soviets will overrun all of Germany, the western Allies accept. In the aftermath of WW2, Mussolini believes his alliance with America essentially gives him carte blanche in southern and central Europe, and promptly manufactures border incidents to justify war with Switzerland. However, he underestimates both international sympathy for the Swiss and their ability to resist, and the Alpine War lasts two more years and inflicts more Italian casualties than their short-lived participation in WW2. He is ultimately able to wring out a narrow victory that sees Italian forces retreat from all but Ticino. Italy, its puppets, and sole ally Bulgaria will be shunned by both democratic and socialist blocs throughout the Cold War.

Australia was afraid of getting devistated when America started this new Imperialism, they dumped the Queen and aided the Americans, and where rewarded land.

Too tired to explain, ask questions if you have any.

Is Mexico under occupation and naked military rule due to guerrilla resistance, or do you think the country would be effectively ruled via a single territorial administration? I would think even an imperial racist US would divide it into *reichscommissariats.
 
The notion here is that a Dominion of India is set up in the 1920s/30s, which starts of as weak, confederal and loyal to London. An Imperial Federation is set up, and over the following decades, the Indian Empire tightens and strengthens, the Imperial Federation comes closer together and more equal, and by the present day, India is the largest economy and dominant player in the British Imperial Federation. Theres a Cold War going on with a Fascist Franco-Russian Entente, America is libertarian, bordering on anarchist in some states, and keeps to itself, and the New Caliphate is relatively nice.

Normally I dislike posting WIPs, but I'm not sure I'll ever finish this (not just Europe, I mean the whole world map, which I have bits and pieces done on as well) and I'm looking for some feedback on ideas for the border between Milan and Venice (the border on the map is just so I remembered the general area) as well as Poland-Lithuania's border (the general size and area I've decided on, but not sure on exacts).

The Historic border between Venice and Milan usually run along the Adda River http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adda_(river)


Italywank are frightening, whichever side are you on.
