Map Thread XXII

Let me guess, a Command & Conquer: Red Alert-esque world, with no Nazis, and a superpower USSR as the main villain of Europe, instead of the Reactionary Far-Right and Fascism?, also what is that blue thing between Turkey and Iraq?, if it is Kurdistan, then it is truly the most cursed Kurdistan that I have ever seen, and that is saying a lot.
No... nothing about video game esque worlds, the Nazis lose in a civil war and that is Assyria, established in the region where the Assyrian rebellion took place irl

The result of me using dice to determine changes to the map. I took a 1975 base map, then rolled a d6 to determine continent, selected a country on the continent by going down a list of countries by GDP nominal, then rolled a d4 to determine an effect (territorial change, government change, annexation, and new country). Some major changes include:
  • The Russian Empire leads a still mostly socialist Warsaw Pact.
  • India has gone socialist.
  • China is monarchist (of the Yuan Shikai variety).
  • Egypt owns most of North Africa as the UAR.

- CNSV-
Continent of Asia in the year 2022.
I made a few small changes regarding Europe, changing "Byzantium" to "Rhomania" and "Caucasian Scythia" to "Roavstan".

This a religious version of that map
Notes: Previously i made the Indic Greeks Malankara, but i am retconning that in favor of making them mostly Hellenist. The Bactrians and Seleucians are still Christian However.

What's up with the random Hellenism in eastern India? Greeco-Bactrian kingdom that went even further into the subcontinent and retained Hellenism?
Alexander lived longer in this timeline and managed to conquer the Ganges Delta before dying. However due to the distance, the few Indian Greeks that migrated there were very distant from the rest of the Hellenic World and mostly just carved their own identity. After they were expelled from the Ganges during the Ghurid Rule, they migrated just south in an even more secluded location, and stayed there until modern day, largely keeping to themselves and simply submitting to whatever state is the strongest.

Something really cool happened with the Hellenes in Bactria. They encountered Buddhism, and heavily syncretized it with Stoicism; the result, called Greco-Buddhism, proved quite popular and outlasted the Indo-Greek kingdoms by a few centuries.
