Here's a map I recently made for the Map of the Fortnight contest over on AltHistoria. Hope you all like it! The Seven Years War goes differently, and France retains its holdings in North America. The threat of French invasion averts the American Revolution, but revolutions break out in Europe even without the American one for inspiration. Soon these revolutions spread to their colonies, and Spain's American colonies claim their independence. Chile notably manages to stabilise early, and is able to resolve border conflicts with its neighbours to its benefit. Without the USA democratic and stable Chile becomes something of an immigration magnet in its own right. The growing population sparks an increased demand for food, and thus mechanisation of agriculture begins alongside the quest for guano for use as fertiliser. This demand for guano leads Chile to make its first forays into the Pacific, claiming uninhabited islands at first, but soon using its local naval superiority to place protectorates over Polynesian countries outside of Europe's grasp. Chile's population grows, as does its agricultural and industrial outputs. The republic reaches its height after they and Mexico join forces to defeat Spain, leaving Chile with most of the former Spanish East Indies. This will be the height of Chile's empire, though, for as the 20th century begins it is increasingly eclipsed by its friend and brother Mexico, and soon there will be war in the family once again.

Nice for posting it, as i consider this map to of such standard, i hereby can inform you that you have become the second person to be awarded the Grand Order of the master Map maker for creating a map that stands above many., but as this is a map and with text i think i need to crate a new Grand order for it. |

Thank you! Is there really that much of a difference between maps with and without text on them? |

Thank you! Is there really that much of a difference between maps with and without text on them? I do not now, some people create maps with limit amount of text and some with large amount of text, but i think for now if a person creates a map like what you and zalezsky i will award the Grand Order of the master Map maker, that is if there are people out there who become members of this forum otherwise you and zalezsky will remain the only person to be awarded the Grand Order of the master Map maker. |

 A small alternate history scenario where World War One begins to turn in favour of the germans when it acquires new puppet states in the east. The flood of manpower and resources begins to pour into germany aiding the war in the west. Originally created for the Map of the Fortnight Contest. |

Two maps of mine: 1. The Empire of China: This map was done for a MOTF a while ago and, until recently, was (IMHO) my best map. All relevant info is in the image.
2. Europe 1850: This is my first Inkscape map and my personal favourite. Basically the British intervene against the Polish Partition and even convince the Austrians to join them. The French then join the British side as well. The Austro-Franco-British Alliance eventually won the war, which became known as the 9 Years War. 20 years later the Poles, Austrians and Russians set aside their differences to enact the Greek Plan. The Ottomans were routed by the Austro-Russo-Polish Alliance and the Ottoman European territories were partitioned. Austria gained Wallachia, Bosnia and northern Serbia. The Poles gained Moldavia and the Russians gained lands in the Caucasus. Finally the remaining Ottoman territories in Europe were used to create a restored Byzantine Empire as a Russian puppet. In the mean time, the HRE was dissolved and the German states re-organised, to Austria's advantage. So Europe 1850:
You guys enjoy! |
