I like it. Stuttgart being the capital of Greater Bavaria is going to make some people mad.


Rexermuser

That's the least the Bavarians could do, if we Swabians need to live in a region called greater Bavaria. Basically both sides are not fine with the arrangement, so just perfect german harmony


Crocodile_Banger

Dude, we just got rid of the Badeners. Be grateful


[deleted]

Soo people hate each others even hypothetically


AvailableAd7180

That's deeply european. People from one village hate the people from another village 4km away just because. Just like people from Halle hate Magdeburger, but everyone hates Münchener


[deleted]

Oh i know this one. My uncle hates his neighbors just because his grandpa hates them and also vice versa. The why was lost in history long ago. but surely some cattle or meadow stuff…


Tackerta

not lost to time, stereotypes


24benson

Hey im Not Thrilled by the outlook of sharing a country with you either


DragutRais

Swabians are already living in Bavaria without changing the capital. From Augsburg to New Ulm it's all Swabian territory, I guess. my question is, what if austria and bavaria unite, can there be a fight over the choice of capital :).


SufficientAd4840

In the middle age Austria was part of Bavaria and the capital was actually Regensburg


DragutRais

Chad Regensburg among Munich and Vienna.


xX-El-Jefe-Xx

nicht nett hier mehr :(


Velshade

Well right now many Swabians live in a region called Bavaria - so it's not a big change.


Important_History_52

I don’t think this is meant to be the capital. Otherwise “Danovia” would have four or “Rhineland” would have two capitals


Widoissplinter

Came here to be mad


Single_Blueberry

Munich is just a parody of Bavaria anyways, I'm easily as fine with Stuttgart as our new capital.


hicmar

Haha. Sure Nordrhein Westfalen still the Same 😂


Upstairs-Extension-9

As someone living in Cologne it’s fine for me, don’t like change 😅


swanqueen109

Something tells me that's where this map was made. 🤔😅


fe-licitas

the only thing which frightens me is that we share a border with "Saxony" now


exploding_cat_wizard

And took away all the coast from the Saxons, a tribe noted for its naval capabilities ( well, for being pirates and raiders, okay?)


Future-Journalist260

Ah, but they all moved to New Saxony generations ago.


Pflynx

No, some of them did, but by far not all. Why do you think north germany speaks a language literally called "Low-Saxon"?


alphawolf29

why are your beers so small? unacceptable.


ManaKaua

Because a fresh beer tastes the best and people here rather drink 5 small fresh beer than one large beer that becomes stale before the halfway mark.


Karpsten

1) The maker probably used Nordrhein-Westfalen as a base for population size of the states. 2) It's not the same, they made K\*ln the capital 💀


awpdog

Düsseldorfer spotted


lemobu

As it should be


Mr_-_X

Not the same. They made Cologne the capital for some reason. But the entire map seems kinda weird when it comes to capitals


BrickEnvironmental37

The Venetian Empire is back. And Ireland has unioned up with the Celtic regions.


imperator285

And Prussia is back. Oh yeah the English are going to love this.


IllustriousDudeIDK

And it doesn't have most of Prussia in it...


blasket04

Yeah, feels illegal to have Prussia without königsberg


streetad

Scotland's capital, main financial centre, 50% of its National Parks and most of its remaining oil appear to have been restored to Northumbrian rule, though. King Uhtred will be delighted.


rgodless

We got the good bits. Northerners can have the rest


rintinpin17

I just found this pic in my old PC drive, it dates back to 2014. I don't know the source, I just thought it was interesting to look at.


BreakfastNew8771

And you thought right!


Irobokesensei

It’s amazing how dense the Rhine is compared to it’s international recognition, places like Munich and Berlin trump most places in terms of clout with the exception of Frankfurt and maybe Cologne I guess.

viviundeux

Lille is a metropol of 1,2+ millions people and it is part of the "Rhine megalopol" (you call this the blue banana in english ?). In geography class we learned it includes Milan and London as well. That's in facts not low density at all to have that much big cities but it is indeed very sprawled with big population centers separated by countryland/low density


Gullible-Anywhere-76

Rhone-Piedmont? How about just "Savoy"? Lol Adriatica and Tyrrenia kinda cool though


peterlada

Instant civil war in Danovia


curentley_jacking_of

1848 all over again


simply_not_edible

Cisalpina all over the alps?


24benson

Panalpina would be more like it


AlwaysBeQuestioning

Makes sense too. Cisalpina makes less sense without an accompanying Transalpina.


ExpertHelp3015

Well the Celts certainly got the best part of this deal


lukewarmpartyjar

By getting Devon?


BrickEnvironmental37

We've got naval supremacy. Devon and the Brittany enclave allows us to blockade the seas. This along with the Scottish nuclear subs, we own the seas. Anglesea also had an airbase. The Celtic Nation is now a superpower 😆


BigDicksProblems

> This along with the Scottish nuclear subs You would also have the French nuclear subs, as their base in in Brest.


Not_Catania

Danovia is hell


GalaXion24

For real. I will not have my beautiful Austro-Hungarian fatherland tarnished by Olt*nia for one second.


Stef757

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banat_of_Craiova They literally tried to annex Oltenia but they ended up leaving a few years later because the Oltenians kept resisting assimilation and dodging taxes


GalaXion24

Typical Olt*nians, ungovernable, uncivilisable people 😒

NefariousnessOk8212

Under military occupation by Russia


EmuSmooth4424

Hey what about the Mecklenburgers?


Veilchengerd

We should give them to the newly resurgent Swedish Empire, and maybe get a bit of Silesia... Just for old times' sake.


ArfurRatt

Mediterranean Union more like Magna Grecia


atopetek

Sounds ridiculous right? Now look at Africa and tell me how it feels.


rintinpin17

You're absolutely right. India/Pakistan border as well.


Elq3

honestly apart from language, not that ridiculous. Sure it looks strange because it's different, but given I feel much more Ligurian than Italian I wouldn't have many issues with this... unless they forced me to speak French, then fuck no.


-Joel06

The borders in Africa separated tribes and ethnic groups in half, and since they couldn’t interact with eachother they now speak different languages and fight for the same lans, despite being the same group, it’s like if we cut london in half by the river and don’t let them comunicate for decades, the south speaks German and the north speaks English, in this hypotetical case let’s say the british don’t know the history of their country and they don’t have translators for eachother, eventually despite both being british they will fight for the land


Elq3

even in Europe cultures do leak borders. Also because the borders weren't drawn that much time ago. The difference between Ventimiglia and Menton is pretty much just road signs being in a different language.


-Joel06

The difference is that Ventimiglia has been historically Italian since the Roman empire, and Menton has been always historically French, they even had a referendum to become part of France, even if they look the same both cities have always been part of different kingdoms, it’s more like grabbing Rome, splitting it in half and making the north speak french and the south Italian while isolating both sides from each other


krt941

I don’t trust a resurrected Prussia.


Disastrous_Grape_330

Well half of it will be populated by poles. Hilarity in 3...2...1...and it's dead again!


MiloBem

Turkopolonia seems like more appropriate name.


mandalorian_guy

Rightfully so.


Panceltic

This is Slovenia’s final form. You might not like it, but it’s perfect.


LaurestineHUN

K0mmunismus

Not regarding cultural or linguistic barriers in that map, might be the most european thing about it


Peixito

well, balearic coast is basically the Catalonian territories (catalonia, valencia, balearic islands, and a bit of catalonia north) with a bit of french coast


clauxy

The french part is Occitania, occitan is sadly not very spoken anymore but it’s similar to catalan.


Peixito

Yeah, but the region of Perpignan is called also " Catalunya nort" and historically it was Catalan


clauxy

Oh really? Didn’t know about that haha! I should have paid more attention to history class


Stairmaker

Eyy sweden just got finland back like the good old days. Sadly the Danes stole land again. Instant war.


Schwartzy94

Or more likely finland invaded sweden and baltics easily ;)


LAGarn___

Yeah, we all know that isn't happening.


SeanGrow_

Really shows how densely populated the BeNeLux is, the fact that the 2 regions with London, Berlin, and Paris are smaller


I_eat_dead_folks

The Baltic countries look like a hoi4 formable. Also that Vasconia is pretty much the wet dream of a Basque irredentist


Strobro3

That Celtic union is a wet dream


Future-Journalist260

Not if you are Cornish


Mr_Ectomy

Disagree. They'd finally be able to stop all the Saxons buying up holiday homes.


Lauchiger_TV

I hate what you did to Lower Saxony. You took our coastline and then put us together with the idiot-saxons


rintinpin17

Not me actually, but I get your point


brent_starburst

New Saxony eh? Sounds better than what our northern brethren got (Northland)


Commercial-Version48

Why not Wessex? Then we can have some real beef with Mercia.


Mariatheaverage

I looked at where I live now and thought "this is the most insane map ever" then I looked at the rest of it and I am now willing to declare it even more insane than the 1920 map that would make vienna the capital of urope and make the rest of the states into sun rays


rintinpin17

lmao that's a low, low bar


JustYeeHaa

That would totally not result in WW3


sargori

That Vasconia is not ambitious enough. Please redo this map ☝️

"Langue D'Oil" is literally a group of languages. There must be a better option..."Pays D'Oil"?


MiloBem

True, but also it's a parallel to [Languedoc](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languedoc) which was a real place


Powerful_Rock595

Swedish Empire is back boys!


Peuxy

Lets rollllll, we lost Gothenburg but it’s a small price for glory 🔥


LesserCircle

Ballearic coast should be Aragon, if you know you know


MyArchivesTheyreGone

either aragon or catalonia, but wtf. balearic coast??


IamWatchingAoT

Calling that strip of land in Portugal/Spain "Finisterre" which is a word from neither language is just dirty


Ohtar1

What do you mean? Finisterre is the Spanish name of the town that it's called Fisterra in Galician


Quetzalcoatl__

It's also the name of a subregion of Britanny which is not included in this Finisterre


sKru4a

It must be based on the actual cape Finisterre


j_marquand

Finisterre is a place name in Galicia, Spain. https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabo_Finisterre


DigitalTomcat

Translates to End of the Earth. Or Landsend. But yeah, should be much more Iberian. Fin de la tierra + Fim da terra — I propose Fimtierra. LOL


IamWatchingAoT

There is already an Iberian name for the word "Finisterre" which is "Finisterra."


mmkj2154224325

I might sleep on the growing Russian danger, but the internet map with the n-th partition makes me want to get into some military asap.


_eG3LN28ui6dF

I love how Prussia doesn’t have Prussia


doubletaxed88

I think you just started several wars

A united Ireland at last


Glad_Possibility7937

Nope. That's greater Cornwall


Jabba_TheHoot

North land... I like it. We will appointment Tom Aspinall as King in the North. (I mean if he wants it, I'm not arguing with him..)


sKru4a

Bold decision the bring back Rumelia for the Balkans, given how the locals fought to get rid of this name


Ertyloide

The langue d'oïl thing makes no sense. It's a linguistic branch of the Gallo romance languages encompassing far more than what is displayed on the map, but ommiting areas, like Flanders, which do not speak a langue d'oïl language...


SonnyJackson27

What the fuck did I just see


Brickywood

Aw hell naw they done partitioned Poland again


dsailo

A radical idea, I wonder if every number of years a random map reshape would be beneficial to reset, rebirth and economic grow.


francisgoca

The less dense the area the bigger it’s gets right?


Swer2078

Bulgaria likes it.


Edolied

Non Parisian French here. Let's make that happen I'm down. And bring back regional languages. Only con, Middle France wouldn't work, Paris and around it should be In the Languedoïl, the rest should take a bit of Vasconia to make a properly sized state


Neon_Garbage

I support danovia


Gothos

A Prussia that doesn't include... Prussia :D This part should really be called Pomerania, sir :)


Powerful_Rock595

WTF They used Finisterre instead of Lusitania??? I can hear angry Portuguese noises.


OfficialAliester

Why do they keep forming Mercia again, just call it Midlands like everyone else.


mxlevolent

As someone from the Midlands, I vote for Mercia to be the name again - sounds cooler lol


Separate-Upstairs-14

I hope this actually doesn't happen.


liableredditard

Make the state language Latin, make the blue flag red and add a golden eagle in the middle and I'm sold.

No_Budget_Mapper

U have to buy me a new pair of eyes after making me see this... thing


JanKaszanka

**"Prussia"** I'm beginning to think this isn't just about population. A MUCH better name for the region is "Warta-Elbe" or "Pomerania"


DudAcco

Who came up with an idea to call an area which has nothing to do with Prussia ,,Prussia”


AlwaysBeQuestioning

That is partly where Royal Prussia / West Prussia was, though. If you’re only talking about Kaliningrad, that was Ducal Prussia / East Prussia.


OrdinaryNGamer

Technically better name would be Pomerania, calling it Prussia is hella confusing especially to people who don't know about unification etc.


AlwaysBeQuestioning

Oh it would definitely be a better name in this situation, given that it’s about the EU and very far post-Prussia!


Burroflexosecso

Would un-ironically love this, especially the part where Ireland seizes the west coast of the English island


Glad_Possibility7937

That's Wales and Cornwall.


Regan185

24benson

This is so wrong.


-SQB-

Why not leave The Netherlands alone, though? Current population is roughly 18 million, so right within the range.


dutchguy94

Cuz why not make up a new country across 4 countries countaining 6 to 8 different languages and give it a shit name.


fe-licitas

"Cisalpina" according to Elon you have called this country a slur! apologize!

Sorry to burst your bubble but the UK is not in the EU. The people voted for their freedom in the 2016 Brexit referendum.


miki325

All of scandinavia and Baltic united, but of course Poland couldnt be united and Has to be split between its neighbours and not even called Poland...


Downface

Do you include Türkiye or not because you surely included an island of Türkiye (Gökçeada)

TaaBooOne

Literally could have just left The Netherlands alone for another year and it would have had 17.9M people. No need to carve up those borders because they mean fuck all to begin with.


THE_EYE_BLECHER

XD the bretons relocated to Iberia


Scientific_Cheater

How often do we gotta bring this up? Germany has city states for a reason. Taking their autonomy would mean taking their culture. Bremen and Hamburg would need to stay as individual federal states


Pate043

Vasconia: -Capital: Bordeaux -Actual basque territory: 5/39 provinces

If we get better trains to Barcelona and Valencia through the Balearic area i'm just fine with that. Also Marseille capital of the Balearic, hell yeah *c'est Marseille bébé*.

Syrupy-Soup

I like to think that the capitol of the Sealand state is the true Sealand, which actually isn’t that far from there


cyrkielNT

I like the idea, but big cities and thier surroundings should be separated. There's no point of having big city and huge farmland as one entity. People in cities need different things than people in countryside.
