Who Sweden ore Sabaton.

Sweden is the great power that unified Scandinavia, Sabaton is a real-world power metal group from Sweden who sings about historical events and I love them.

Trow in Absolut Vodka which also comes from Sweden and which i collect and the world must be afraid of Sweden.

I don't mean to seem like I'm seeking attention by posting again so soon, but I made an alternate geography map that I'm very proud of today.

Well if you did not win the Grand Order of the Map maker with your previous map then this one would surly be the one that would get you that Grand Order, nice map.

So this is a map in the progress for "To Rebuild a Shattered World" if I decided to build a map instead of trying to complete a timeline on it. I'm having trouble on whether or not this would be feasible as a scenario. Keep in mind that this is just a rough draft.

Still a nice map.

This one is a collage-style set showing a fictional Scottish colonial empire.

That is a powerful Scotland.

  That is an huge empire.  I presume the PoD would be a success for the Darien colony project?  Plus a hell of a lot of other things going right for them.

  Should that area being described as Scottish West Indies be somewhere in the east Indies as I don't recognise the islands and there is another part called the Scottish Caribbean?  Although it doesn't look much like what I know of the Indo-China area either?

Based on a game of EU4 that I played as Granada, here's a map of a restored Al-Andalus and an Iberia that is solidly part of the Muslim world.

Time to bump the thread again, here's an independent Louisiana.

  Now that would be an interesting world although I suspect it would be larger, because of a potential vacuum to the west or smaller, because of encroachments from the east and north.  Is the POD that Napoleon is satisfied with his 1801 borders and encourages settlement while staying at peace in Europe or something earlier?

It's some weird situation where Louisiana isn't sold to the US and then becomes a hub of Republicanism after Napoleon makes himself Emperor, and given that fact when it declares independence as a republic Napoleon isn't all that concerned about it.

  I must admit that does sound odd as I couldn't see

a)  It becoming a hub of republicanism - especially since IIRC Napoleon didn't get it back from the Spanish before he became emperor.

b)  That Napoleon wouldn't be concerned about it, although possibly in a scenario where he didn't sell it to the US and war with Britain broken out again when he would have problems getting to it.  Although in that case possibly you might have some groups there, realising their vulnerable to attack declaring independence from the French empire to distance themselves.

c)  That the US wouldn't seek to take over the region, by some means or another especially given the demographic imbalance between the two. 

  The latter is why I was thinking a Louisiana that stays with France and Napoleon who accepts the Treaty of Amiens terms and hence doesn't go to war with Britain or other powers and instead commits resources to developing and populating Louisiana would be so important.  It gives the protection of the French empire to deter US encroachments and gives an opportunity to settler the region enough to secure it in the longer rune when something breaks the links with France.
